I would love the option to change the status of the assignment while in speed grader and not have to go completely out of speed grader. Is there an option to do this?
I found this suggestion while trying to make a similar suggestion. We need to be able to adjust the grade qualifiers (late, missing, excused) while in Speed Grader as well as while in the APP. Also when an assignment is graded using the Canvas APP, it resets any qualifiers that were put on an assignment using the webpage.
Please, please, please. In our world of hybrid learning, having students remote and in the classroom, makes extra work for grading and keeping up with what work is missing. Being able to keep an assignment as an online submission, and then changing the status of those that turn it in in person while grading in SpeedGrader would be a great help.
It would be nice to have access to the status buttons in speedgrader, instead of just in the grade detail tray. It is a lot of clicks to get to the detail tray to change the status from missing to none.
An even better idea would be to make it so when a score was entered, the status automatically changed from missing to none.
It would also be nice to be able to exclude weekends from the days late. If I have an assignment due on Friday and the student turns it in on Monday, I'd like for it to be only 1 day late rather than 3.
I can't tell you how much I despise leaving Speedgrader, trying to locate assignments in a crowded gradebook, and then having to change a students' "late" marking to "none" if they were absent, receive extended time, or have special circumstances. I have courses with 40-70 students and finding these singleton grades to fix in gradebook takes forever. And then I'm out of my speedgrader workflow. PLEASE just double these in the Speedgrader. Then it would be, you know... speedy.
Maybe there's something that I can't see for some reason, but I would really like to be able to mark students assignments "missing" or "excused" from within Speedgrader. I can do this from the box in Grades, but not in Speedgrader (unless, as I said, there's something in my school's specific configuration that is hiding this). It seems from previous Idea Conversations that this once existed, but I can't see it, now.
