Creating and Marking Assignments and Displaying Grades

Hi

We are actively encouraging staff to use electronic submission and marking of assignments, be it via online submission using Speedgrader for marking or via an external tool i.e. Turnitin with the option of grading with Speedgrader or Turitin’s own Feedback Studio.

 

Issues we have had so far include:

 

  • Grades being issued prematurely to students
  • Students not being able to see grades/feedback
  • Grades/Feedback being available initially for students then disappearing

 

This has led to complaints from some of our Higher Education students and lecturers but the issue may be more to do with how we are using the system rather than Canvas itself.

Has anyone got an example of best practice on creating and marking assignments whilst handling the release of dates and feedback?

Thanks
