I have a weird situation where a student response to a quiz question includes text that is linked to an external website.  That indicates to me that the student either copied and pasted the text in and that process also copied the underlying link or ...

In my half-asleep state, I accidentally made a batch grade change to an entire assignment. (I meant to fill in zeros for those who did not submit work, but I failed to realize that, since the others hadn't been graded yet, that this would change ALL ...

Hi, I did a search on Canvas and seem to can't find a topic related to resetting the grades (not the topic I was looking for...). I copy a quiz by sending a copy to myself in the course or from another course.  This is a twice a week virtual check in...

Hello all, I am wondering if there is a fast way (non-screen-capture) to download student audio/video submissions the way you can with a text file? I would like my students to have access to these files for future work as well as use their submission...

When assigning a google doc I want my students to complete I use it as an external tool so each student already has their own copy. However, these assignments are not always assignments I want to grade, but are assignments I review to see how student...

Shouldn't the "student view" button be available in more places on canvas? It wastes time to have to click on your course home every time you want to see something from the student perspective. Please add the "student view" button to the assignment d...
