[ARCHIVED] Quiz Spelling and Case Sensitivity

I understand that Canvas is very sensitive when it comes to student "fill in the blank" responses. This year I am having to address more issues with quizzes than previous years. I am reinforcing the habit with my students to check spelling and rules of capitalization and punctuation. What are the specific rules that Canvas runs off of with fill in the blank answers? I ask this because my students do not capitalize an answer and they get the item correct even if the correct answer is capitalized. However, today several students input their answers correctly and canvas marked them wrong and automatically lower cased the answer. This was my entire class of students that had this issue.
