@rlbrown21 - I couldn't agree with you more.  I have grown tired of being raked over the coals for decisions I cannot control. Instructure doesn't have to take the heat for rolling things out prematurely, we as the admins supporting their product get...

@paul_fynn Thank you for sharing these challenges. I'm going to share with our team that owns this behavior and see how we might be able to solve this. 

I am excited for the feature to be released! I feel that this will solve a lot of problems in cross listing some of our courses. Teachers will love being able to assign a different module to sections in their course. I love to deliver exciting news t...

How do I add the TimelyCare quick link tile to the banner on the left hand side of the screen (where the icons for Courses, Dashboard, Calendar, Outbox, etc. are listed)? Yes, we already have a partnership with TimelyCare.Thank you

@Ashley15Harden Yes, this feature will be compatible with Mastery Paths! 

Hey, @rsackett3 !From my own experience, I have never ever had issues with my exams. My exams are usually about 50 questions, and I usually have about 30-40 students taking the test at the same time. With that being said, you should not have any trou...

Hi, @ThayerMerritt , Thanks for that information! Did removing all the custom JS/CSS in your beta environment do anything at all to solve this issue? I'm sure several other institutions are experiencing the the same, or similar issues. If you wouldn'...

Thank you so much for your explanation!  We do not have a license for Respondus as of now but the faculty is asking for locked down browser option.  Is Respondus the only option or should we consider something else?I really appreciate your help!

Thanks. This is what I thought also, but I figured it did not hurt to inquire.  

Thanks

Hmm...definitely curious. If the logs do show they were accessing the quiz, I think your question of being on the wrong account is a concern. I would find it hard to believe that Canvas would glitch it's access logs for a single account at that exact...

@DavidSchlater I looked at it yesterday. I'm assuming new quizzes is counted under external tools and it is a very small percentage. I'm not pushing too hard on new quizzes and probably won't until we absolutely have to because we already had too man...

@raoshriya96 -- Our goal is just to get a very global sense of daily system usage (in terms of number of unique students) over the course of a semester, so we would just do a count for distinct user_id for each day (with some additional filtering to ...

@MonikaMajor  We have a license for "Respondus" which I call the exam creator and Respondus Lockdown. It is confusing! I wish the exam creator software had a unique name like Lockdown Browser does. The exam creator software is a desktop app that can ...

Good call @stimme. I was too intent on figuring out the parquet file conversion which led me astray.Dask can process the gzipped csv so I gave that a try and it performed excellently--no issues and performant as well.Thanks for the responses.
