@ahyde1 , I'm sorry to see that your question hasn't yet received a response yet—but the answer is no, Canvas doesn't have that kind of functionality. I'd be curious to know if you have devised a solution on your own for this cool engagement activity in the meantime. When I was teaching, my students wrote weekly reflections which they submitted as assignments. At the end of each week, I took a screenshot of each student's reflection and posted them as individual replies to a dedicated discussion topic to allow students to engage with each one separately. (I opted for screenshots rather than copying and pasting the text to make it a bit harder for students to copy them for later use elsewhere.)
