[ARCHIVED] Exporting examples of student work

[jwbullard]

I am an instructor in an engineering course.  To meet ABET requirements, I need to provide three examples of student work for every assessment in my course.  This means I need to find a way to somehow capture *completed* assignments and quizzes in Canvas.  Is there a way to do it?  I'm currently contemplating just taking screenshots of each answered question for a student and then merging the snapshots into a single PDF—- a tedious and time-consuming prospect.  I'm hoping that there is a ready-made way to do this because I'm sure I am not the only one in this situation.

For completed assignments, the easiest way would be to go to the assignment itself and choose "Download Submissions."  That downloads them all into a zip file for you and it's super easy. 

Or, from the gradebook, you can click on a student's name and download your choice one by one if you need specific assignments.

Thanks very much!  I followed your advice but I'm sorry I am just not seeing a "Download" button anywhere.  I went to the gradebook, clicked on the students name, which gives me a side panel with some overview statistics for that student, but no download button that I can see.  If I click on the "Grades" button within that side panel I can see the students grades on every assignment, but again I am missing any kind of download button.  I'm sorry if this is obvious and I am just missing it.

Hope this helps:

From the assignment (to get all of them):

After clicking the name of an assignment...

If you click the student's name in the gradebook (probably not a very quick solution), then grades, you can access all of their assignments that way as well (similar and probably more clunky that just SpeedGrader)

Thanks for the help again.  I'm wondering if maybe you are using a different browser or a different OS.  My individual assignment page doesn't look like that, and there is no Download button.  Here is an image:

I have the "Related Items" section where yours is but I don't have a "Download Submissions" option there.  Is there a different view?

Maybe you are referring to downloading files that students have uploaded?  I know how to do that, but I'm talking about actual online graded quizzes and exams, where there are no file uploads but Canvas does the grading automatically.
