I cannot see how a quiz will appear and function to students without publishing the quiz - this prevents me from seeing if there is an issue with the quiz before students have access - for example, if there is an obvious error in the grading, or in my case, I am trying to confirm that they cannot in fact see the answers between quiz attempts (as in professor mode, Preview shows me the answers and then allows me to take it again)

 

I am very frustrated with Canvas overall - lots of functionality but completely unintuitive interface, content not getting published even though it appears to since there was some secret other folder that needed to also be published, 90% chance that when I post anything on Canvas I get frantic emails from students that something is wrong. It should be seamless and foolproof.

 

I say this as a tech savvy millennial who lives on the internet. 

 

Another good example of this, in submitting this "idea", Canvas took me to a page to make a new account, thereby deleting this whole "idea" text. Great example of inefficiencies in design.
