[ARCHIVED] Regrading quizzes

[reynodb2]

I have administered a quiz, and all the students have taken the quiz and it was automatically graded. However, one of my (numerical) answers that was used to grade the quiz was wrong.

How do I go into the quiz, change the answer (i.e., edit the quiz) and have Canvas regrade all my students. At least regrade that particular problem, using the students’ original answers.

This is because many of them typed the correct numerical answer, but were marked wrong because I had quoted the wrong correct answer.

Thanks!

Hello  @reynodb2   and welcome to the Community.  I apologize that it has taken so long for anyone to answer you.  I assume that by now, you either found the work around, or changed the grades manually.  However,  for future reference, check out these 2 documents.

 If you have New Quizzes:  How do I regrade an assessment question in New Quizzes?  

If you're using Classic Quizzes:  What options can I use to regrade a quiz in a course?

Yes, I found a workaround. But thanks for the links.

@jcarpenter1, I appreciate your willingness to answer our questions.

I clicked the link you gave, to "What options can I use to regrade a quiz in a course." Surprisingly, the page that came up said, "You do not have sufficient privileges for this resource or its parent to perform this action." Is there some kind of error here, or is there something else I need to do, to be able to access the information on options for regrading quizzes? And if you're not the right person to ask, do you know who is the right person?

Thanks.

@DaveBrown I don't know why you're getting that error message.  In your help menu, ask Canvas Support that question.  If it helps, I sometimes get the same error message!

Thanks, anyway.

I got an error saying I don't have privileges too. Sigh.
