As I am sure many of you can relate, the Canvas Quizzes function is used for a lot more than quizzes. It is used for Exams, Surveys, Learning Activities, Homeworks, and so much more. Therefore, I think it would be appropriate to rename the function from "Quizzes" to something more general, like "Assessments," that is more encompassing of the function's actual use. Additionally, adding more categories (or even allowing instructor customization) to segment these Assessments by would also be very helpful for organizational purposes, both for students and instructors.

As a student who likes to traditionally interact with pen/paper assessments, I would love the option for Canvas to add certain features to allow students to interact with their quiz. Such tools could include: Highlight Function: Enables students to highlight parts of the question Cross-Out Function: Enables students to cross-out answer choices they believe are incorrect Annotate Function: Allows students to write quick notes as it relates to the question I am surprised this has not already been implemented given that the other online exam platforms I have used have included this function. This would certainly help to promote accessibility on Quizzes for students like myself who like the feel of pen/paper more.
