Use Login ID in Bulk Download
When doing a bulk download of Assignments it would be useful to include the student's Login ID in the filename for each submission as well as / or instead of the student's name.
Often there are very similar looking names which, combined with the fact that any spaces or hyphens get removed and the first names and surnames are concatenated with no separator, means the files do not appear in the same order as the list in the Gradebook. The lengthy filename means that sometimes it takes a while to decipher which student a file actually belongs to.
I have to mark externally to Canvas as my module deals with programming and on more than one occassion I have found I have added the grades to the wrong student.
