@TrentMcMahon ...
I have never been a big fan of copying/pasting text from MS Word into the RCE (Rich Content Editor) of Canvas ... mainly because it tends to bring in a lot of junk (or what I sometimes call "rogue") code. I know there are tools out there on the Internet that can help clean up your code so that it looks similar (if not identical) to what you had intended in the Word document. Doing a Google search for "Word to HTML" brings up several results...such as: Convert Word and PDF files to HTML | Free online HTML editor (wordtohtml.net). A while back, I wrote a blog post here in the Community about how to clean up HTML code (not necessarily from a Word document):
HTML Cleanup
So...this might give you some helpful suggestions, too.
Anyway...I wanted to provide my $0.02. Hope it helps a bit.

A number of comments have suggested incorporating the due date into the scheduling the availability of feedback. If that is in fact the case, it would be helpful if there were also an option to show after the "available until" date. Instructors who permit late submissions would not want students seeing the correct answers or perhaps any details until after all students had submitted.
Personally, I favor making the options as granular as possible in terms of what types of feedback is available when. Faculty generally have very strong and well justified ideas as to what type of feedback is appropriate at any point during or after submitting a quiz. And requiring them to revisit the quiz settings in order to show or hide a specific type of feedback is not practical or reasonable.

From what I'm seeing for this feature, the mean, median, and quartile information is now available to students. However, I am not seeing a way for instructors to access this information as well. The only thing I've been able to do is emulate a student as an admin and then provide that information to the instructor. I tried going into Student View, but it looks like the Test Student cannot see the grade distribution graph. Is there a way for instructors to see the grade distribution graph as well?
