Hello! I have created a Canvas quiz where students have two attempts. I want them to be able to identify what questions they answered correctly and incorrectly following the first attempt so they know what to review before taking their second attempt. Therefore, I would like to set it up to where all of the correct answers…
I am literally stuck on how I get a friend to invite?❓️❓️❓️❓️❓️
I'm a 27-year veteran high school science teacher who has used Canvas for 15+ years. I've preserved my courses and have been waiting for the new individual educator solution. I understand that Instructure has said it is working on a more secure solution and that it is expected this fall. However, I now need to decide…
How do I remove multiple students from a course?
How do I get to the rich content editor to make a video to post for a discussion within the class?
Our district has a max score students can earn when they re-assess on something (like a quiz). Does Canvas have any settings to set that max score to allow kids to retake a quiz and not have the teacher go in and manually change the kids raw score to the max amount they are allowed?
I have faculty wanting to use Roll Call Attendance. It is apparently an external app though I'm not familiar with it. How do I install this app? I find this answer already: "an external app (LTI) used for taking attendance in Canvas courses. The Attendance tool can be used for online or face-to-face courses. Enabled at the…
We currently use ExamSoft for secure exam taking but we are looking to replace it. I was wondering what application some of you use for secure exam taking? Thank you
Hello, I am a student who uses canvas, and was wondering if there is a way to remove a assignment from the missing status, in cases like where the assignment is a group assignment, and only one person is supposed to submit it. I know i'm able to mark it as complete, but it still shows as missing.
1) Make New Quizzes shareable between teachers. This is a huge drawback for teachers collaborating on courses and drives my colleagues and I to continue using Classic Quizzes instead. Currently, the quiz questions disappear when shared between teachers. 2) Enable New Quizzes to show quiz results by class/ period in a…
Introduction This script adds a "Max" button to the Pts column header in a rubric in SpeedGrader. When you click the Max button, the script will go through your rubric and assign the maximum value to all criteria that do not already have points assigned. It keeps what you have already completed and then assigns the maximum…

Hello, I wanted to bring to your attention a performance issue that instructors at my college have reported with the recently redesigned Discussions feature. During a recent Q&A session, an instructor mentioned that when a discussion has a large number of replies, the page experiences some lag time when the threads are…

I am not sure if this has been suggested by others, but I'd love to seen an option in the automation set-up for post-enrollment nudges to choose how many days before the start of a course to automatically send a personalized email. Currently the trigger is set by completion threshold and days after enrollment. I'd love to…
One of the most valuable parts of building Canvas is learning directly from the people who use it every day. Earlier this year, we introduced the Canvas Collaborative Roadmap to create a more transparent, ongoing way for customers to share contributions, vote on roadmap cards, and help shape future investments. In just a…
I'm testing whether Mastery Paths can be used to give students early access to an item based on their score, while making the same item available to everyone else on a later date. Here is my setup: A 4-point assignment is the source for the Mastery Path. Students scoring 75–100% are assigned a Solutions item. The Solutions…
Can anyone tell me if there was a recording of the Impact User Group meeting? I missed it and would really have liked to know what was going on. Thanks in advance for any help!
I am a physics teacher at a high school. I love to use the random generation of formula questions to give each student a unique quiz/test. However, units in physics are extremely important. In the past I have also used Moodle as an LMS and they included a feature that could grade the units listed after the numerical…
Faculty are wondering if they can make individual motifications from the Gradebook setting rather than having to go to the Discussions themselves to open up and recompute scores. We find where it adjusts for all students in mass but it would be nice to have that feature independently as faculty go to Gradebook to get an…
Hello - Can anyone give some insight on when the new platform will be published? I have had to use Google Classroom for my clinical program over the summer and it is not working well. I really miss my Canvas access! Any tentative date will help! Thank you!
Canvas needs the same Speedgrader tools available for Canvas Discussions. Highlighting, point annotation, text comments, strikethrough, area annotations, etc. This would make instructor feedback easier.
Hi, all! My organisation is looking into using IgniteAI Grading Assistance for SpeedGrader to support assessment marking. I would like to ask users who have actually started using this feature within their organisations: What are the pros/cons of the tool? How did it change your work flow? Would you recommend it? Looking…
Using the Canvas Parent app on Android. Going to Calendar > Calendars and hitting the checkboxes next to the classes I want to see, I can successfully select four. When I try to select a fifth, the app throws a "you can only select up to ten calendars" error. It seems to be miscounting. I tried to submit a support case,…
