Thanks for taking the time and effort to deal with my question. Sorry, I may not have expressed myself clearly.  I do know how to insert a link into any page.  I really don't want to take the time to insert a link into all 200+ pages in my Canvas course.  Those links would not be especially useful to students either.   I have a science class with many pages to edit and update from time to time.  I was actually trying to find the "Feature Request" area to make this request.  I though that I might get me started in this question area.  I would like Canvas to automatically list, at the top of a page, the module name that it is associated with the page.  Each page shows the title, Published, Edit, and 3 vertical dots near the top.  I was hoping that the associated module name or an abbreviation could be listed on the page as well.   The Canvas software obviously knows this detail or it couldn't arrange the pages into modules.  If that knowledge could be expressed at the top of any page, assignment, quiz, or whatever, that would be so very helpful.  It also would be very helpful if that module name would be link to the module, so that it would be easy to navigate back to the module from the page.   When I need to update or edit a page, I locate that page through the modules that I have made, not through the "All Pages" area that takes forever to load and scan through the list with so many pages.  When I finish updating a page, I want to navigate immediately back to the module, not click, scan, click my way back to the location of the module.  Rather than clicking and scanning through all the modules to get back to where I was, wouldn't it be easy to just click a link on the page to return to the module.  That name would also enhance the associations of pages and modules during development of the Canvas site, especially when it is complex. ...

I am in agreement with this comment.  There is simply little logic behind these interpretations.  FERPA does trump convenience, but let's apply FERPA logically.  Any student in a course on campus could be identified as being in that course by someone simply seeing them in a classroom.  Our student email systems within the whole college allows any student to message any other student.  There is nothing isolating about students being in separate courses. The entire conversation hinges on whether a student might be in danger or find offense in being in a course with another student that would be dangerous to them.  When a student enrolls in a course, they don't know who will be in that course when the course finally meets.  If they fear associating with another student, then they might look at the course roster after they have registered.  The student doesn't have control over the registration process, nor would we alter the entire process for a single student.  The essential element is does the student have the ability to know who is in the class and can they freely decide to change their situation if they find a problem.  This interpretation is about students having the knowledge and the ability to keep themselves safe. Just as students won't know who is registered in a course before or after they register, if courses were merged, there is no way that they would know.  Just as a student would solve the issue by looking at a roster of their registered class and make a decision for their own safety, they can look at the roster for a merged set of sections and make a decision as to their safety.  It is the exact same process.  How do we extend danger to merged sections but not use the same logic for a student simply registering for a single course?  Something is not logical here.  I believe that the only issue for the student would be awareness.  If the college or instructor clearly states that several sections will be or are merged and that you could be associating with students in other sections of the same course, you have now given the student the same awareness that they would have had from simply registering for any single section of a course. Please someone shoot down my logic.  Have I missed something?  It seems like we are trying to use FERPA to eliminate the fraction of a gram of danger for a student.  I am committed to that reduction as well, but it is not possible to do that in the real world.  The answer is to give students the knowledge that they need to keep themselves safe.  The solution to this issue is to make students aware and if they find an issue to help them resolve that problem by every means possible. ...

Thank you both for responding.  I obviously misunderstood the way it is graded.  I didn't realize that a wrong answer was subtracted.  I was trying to get two independent questions operating in one question. When the student has one response correct and one incorrect, I thought that each would earn or not earn a point, not that one answer would penalize the other correct answer.  I was assuming that right answers were worth 1 and incorrect answers were worth 0 not -1.  I am using the classic quizzing.  I guess I wish that I could customize that feature.  I could get a lot more questions into a test with less work if I could put two independent questions in one. ...
