Can Students View Exams from Canvas Report

[ClarissaSwope]

Hello, 

I received a Canvas report this morning that included an exam created last week. In this email, there was an option to "Click to view" the exam. When I clicked on this link, it took me directly to the exam. However, the view it took me to was an instructor's view.

My question is if students have this same option. To preserve test integrity, we don't want students to be able to see the exam unless we are in a testing environment. I have included an image of the link I am referring to. 

Thank you!

Hi @ClarissaSwope 

The "click to view" is a link to the assignment.  Whether you see the student view or the instructor view of that assignment depends on whether you are a student or an instructor in the course.

The report email is a weekly collection of the notifications that you received from Canvas this week.  Students get their own notifications.
