Hi Canvas community,   I'd like to share an idea that would really benefit us and the way we use Canvas. We use and abuse sub-accounts as we work with different university partners. You'll see in the ...

For Online Assignment => Media Recording Submission  -- have the ability to put a time limit for the recordings submitted by students.   This came up during our Canvas Bootcamp, and we have a LOT of E...

Canvas provides a great feature to create a syllabus in a course. We generally encourage our instructors to create their content in the RCE (HTML) so that it is more accessible and usable than a PDF f...

In most contexts, when a file such as a Word document or PDF is linked in Canvas, a preview button is added alongside the filename, which allows the user to preview the file in-line without downloadin...

If something is visible from the Admin Tab, we should be able to disable it from Permissions.    Currently if you create an Admin role called Advisor, and give that role No Permissions, the Advisors s...

We had a request to have the calendar items on the Canvas course calendar to be sorted Alphabetically as an alternative way to sort and view items (quizzes, assignments, et). 

Current Limitation:  Currently, Canvas does not allow admins and instructors to weight (i.e. change the percentage of the assignment group) in separate course sections. The current solution is for adm...

In Classic Quizzes, when taking an exam, the time remaining is in this format: XX Years, XX Months, XX Days, XX Hours, XX Minutes, XX Seconds. However, in New Quizzes, it only shows hours, minutes, an...

In the history of quizzes, when a teacher creates a quiz with multiple attempts, they usually set which score to keep (highest, latest, average). However, students will not be aware of this until they...

As an admin, I am often copying courses within Canvas. Whenever I copy a course, I am automatically enrolled as a teacher in the course which can become irritating. I do not need to be a teacher in th...

Currently the permission for editing grades gives graders the right to also post grades. This means that different tutors (per section or group) can post grades earlier than others. It should be possi...

When we assign students a peer review in canvas, they do not have access to the speedgrader. What they end up with is a slightly clunky assortment of pop-out windows for viewing/annotating and the rub...

The idea: Our students (higher education: BA, MBA) have recently raised the following feedback: "discussions are disorganised. There is a mix of posts from the LEX team (student support), academics (t...

Adding people individually to sections is cumbersome when dividing large classes into multiple sections. Doing this in batch way simplifies this task. Note: this has been suggested earlier but I like ...

Thank you for implementing https://community.canvaslms.com/ideas/2214-adjust-all-assignment-and-quiz-dates-on-a-single-page  and https://community.canvaslms.com/ideas/16898-bulk-update-selectedall-ass...

Currently, as an instructor, after we make changes on an assignment page and hit save, we can't recover it. That would be interesting to have access to either a history of edits (version control?) or ...

We have students taking upwards of 12-13 courses in a trimester. That can be a considerable amount of assignments, quizzes and discussions. It's my understanding that the To Do list only shows 7 items...

At the moment, in students' to-do list in Canvas, all assignment types, including quizzes, show the due date. This makes sense for most assignment types, but for quizzes, where the due date indicates ...

Adding the "grade" column and or completion checkmark to the course summary screen that is embedded on the syllabus would allow students to quickly see what assignments they have already completed whe...

As an instructor, I have students post discussion questions and responses each week. If they posted something, they get the points. However, there is no way to automatically grade these-- I have to ma...
