[DocViewer] Bulk Download of Annotated DocViewer documents by assignment

[joannae]

Instructors can easily bulk-download student submissions, and instructors can individually download the PDF showing the annotations they've made to a student's submission in DocViewer. There is currently no way to bulk download all annotated submissions for an assignment in one click.  Faculty frequently want to keep a portfolio of this feedback / graded work for each student.

Similar requests have been made by Eric Castro and Robert Jones, but haven't received the votes needed.

5 years and still nothing?

I had a faculty request for this today, so the need still exists.

Is there any hope that this feature will ever be added. This LMS feature would save people a lot of time and frustration.

I agree! This would be a fantastic upgrade in Canvas.

Problem statement:

Currently we have to download each student submission with annotations individually. We are preparing for accreditation, which will require the submissions with annotations for each student. This is extremely time consuming and instructors would like the ability to do the bulk download with submissions for assignments in Canvas.

Proposed solution:

The solution would be to allow instructors to bulk download assignment submissions with the annotations for those submissions. The "Why" for the solution is that this would be a huge timesaver for any institution that is undergoing program assessment or accreditation.

Problem statement:

Currently, submission comments can only be downloaded by PDF individually by student by assignment in the speedgrader. According to this article: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-download-submission-comments-as-a-PDF-i... This is very time-consuming.

Proposed solution:

Give the ability to bulk download or export the instructor's submission comments by course and assignments. Download should be available in PDF and CSV files. This will allow instructors to have a copy of their responses, which they can use for future use and/or for an LLM (large language model).

Hi @masantos -

Thanks for sharing your idea with the Instructure Community!

Would [Speedgrader] Option to download the student submission AND the SpeedGrader comments at one time and... meet your needs? If so, we can merge your request into the comments of the existing idea.

Hi @KristinL 

Yes! That would be great. Thank you! 

There are different ways to call the Submission comments I couldn't find similar titles.
