Missing Assignment Report

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas

For more information, please read through the Canvas Release Notes (2020-09-19)


Teachers would like to print a report listing only Missing Assignments.  This report would be sent to academic support personnel to facilitate assignment completion.  Teachers should be able to print the "Missing Assignment Report" directly from Canvas.

This feature would be so helpful. Especially now as remote learning doesn't seem to be going away anytime soon and the end of the academic year quickly approaching! Help us, help our students.

Now more than ever,  this feature would be a lifeline.  The ability to identify students who have not turned in an assignment ( preferably with a "Z" so it could actually transfer to the pinnacle grade book) would be amazing. The ability to distinguish between no points earned and a  missing assignment is long overdue.

I am hoping that "print" included the option to send the report directly using the mail feature in Canvas. Could the "report" allow for other details that are part of an interim report? Essentially, I would like a report of this type to provide feedback and perhaps a comment on student progress overall in the course.

Update: One of our Canvas administrators pointed out a feature in the gradebook that may be useful to you.  In the gradebook, if you look at the assignment, there are thee dots next to the assignment title.  Click on the three dots.  There is a button that says Message students who...  This will send an email to all of the students who haven't submitted an assignment.  It's not as useful as a missing assignment section, but it did allow me to email several students at a time with the click of the mouse to remind them that I didn't have their assignment.

This feature would have been extremely helpful during the school closure this March.    I also like the idea of the students being able to pull up their own missing assignment report.

This would be such an incredibly useful feature to have - especially for K-12 Canvas users.
