In the "Modules" section of a course offering in Canvas for which I am the instructor, there is a Module entitled "Meet the Instructor." This Module has a formated section where a video may be uploaded.  I would like to upload a video I created that ...

I am not able to see the average score for an assignment in any page or in any menu as a teacher. How do I see the average score for an assignment once all grades have been submitted? 

Hello,In Speed Grader, I love the ability to add a quick instructional video showing students how to fix items in a submission so they can redo their work for better understanding and marks.  Thank you for that!  My idea:  PLEASE put a "Pause" and "C...

I teach photography, and student submit many individual, large sized tif files. And, I teach 4-5 sections at a time, that are all combined into a single canvas page. When downloading student submissions all at once, It often errors out when creating ...

I create a test question, for example, Multiple Choice. I try to insert an image. I press the "Upload Images" button in the Menu.  I select an image (.jpg, .jpeg) for my computer.  The image shows in the uploader and I click "Submit. The image shows ...

My assignment's tab is getting really long. Two main concerns here: 1. There is no way to sort alphabetically, due date, etc., seems pretty archaic for 2025 2. There is no way to multi-select assignments to delete, move, etc. Can the instructor side ...

Since AI has made it so easy for students to complete assignments without doing the work themselves, I have started using a lot for in-person "on paper" assessments.  I would love to keep a record of these in Canvas attached to each student, so they ...

Over the past term, I’ve explored multiple Canvas tools to build a “student channel” workflow: a space where students can post updates or reflections and receive timely, individualized responses. My goal was to create a system that supports: Private...

I am constantly having this problem where students attempt to send me an attached PDF file over the Canvas inbox and it always fails. As far as I know, the student never gets an error message and they assume I got the attachment. After several back a...

My course design involves optional homework that students can do to improve their grade. Not only does it seem that optional grades are not well integrated into Canvas, but my equation for grade impact is seemingly impossible to input. It works as fo...

I was explaining how to mark assignments on Canvas with a colleague and told him to click on "Marks" on the sidebar, but it was not there - it was called "Grades" on his version of Canvas? Why?  Also on my colleague's version of Canvas, there is no o...

Has anyone used Canvas to allow Faculty and/or Administrators track minute equivalencies? For example, if instructional activities have been assigned minutes, how would you track them to make sure online courses are in compliance. Any suggestions are...

How can I look at an assingment and know from which course it was imported? A teacher has almost all their materials imported from over 5 previous or shared courses. The teacher is noticing some were imported from the wrong course and wants to get ri...

The "Move To" button does not work as intended. It instead takes me back to the home page of my Canvas course. A number of errors appear in the script, so it might be that deprecated Chrome or Google features are being used in the code. At any rate, ...

Imagine you are a middle-schooler, and that "missing" button is the only thing that will get you to even somewhat begin to care about whether or not you do your work. Your teacher has warned you a million times not to ask her if something will be gra...

Hello and good afternoon, I was working with a faculty member today who has a frustrating issue going on with their gradebook.For several columns, she has input a grade for a student, but after inputting the grade, it immediately reverts back to the ...

Good morning Community! My second "I'm stumped" post of the morning - maybe I should just call it a day! LOL! Here is another teacher query that I'm not entirely sure how to answer. I searched the community but did not find the issue addressed.  Here...

As a teacher, is there a way to change the precision in Canvas. I saw that it rounds off the hundredthousandths place 0.00014= 0.0001. Is there a way to change this setting? When I do Canvas as SJCC the numerical answers get an extra decimal place. 0...
