When I am editing or creating assignments in Canvas, I would like the option to make the window full screen.

Is there a way for a teacher to be notified in Canvas about student completion of an assignment, quiz or test which was taken in an external source such as Cengage using MindTap? I would like to know if this constant monitoring by the teacher could be more streamlined by a changed setting etc. See below for teacher question. "I do not receive notifications when a student finishes a Quiz, or anything else in Canvas utilizing an External Tool. For example: a student completes an Accounting test in Cengage using MindTap. The grade is pushed to my Canvas gradebook, but I do not see it's there until I actually go in to that course and go to my gradebook. It does not show up on my list of things "To Do" in Canvas. This means there is constant monitoring of every class in order to catch when those students have completed those assignments/assessments."

Right now you can see your progress in individual classes. Our school would be greatly benefited by allowing students to monitor their own progress in a Welding, Nursing programs etc. That is something that we are going to look at for our school website but I wanted also to suggest that Canvas Developers consider this feature for Canvas since it is used by so many schools. For instance, High School students that attend our technical college are working at a program for years not just a trimester. For them to be able to see their progress and know where they are, is teaching the student to take responsibility for their education. It would be highly motivating for students to see that progress in a program grow over time and would increase their likelihood of completing it. The progress of the individual class ( when completed) would have to be added to another level/place in Canvas that could be custom fit to the individual schools since all our programs are different. I hope this helps. I would appreciate comments from individuals with expertise in this area as to how to develop this ourselves or from anyone on the Canvas development team. kathyh@ubtech.edu

Hi!! Click on the class in the Dashboard. Then on the left click on Settings for that class at the bottom. A page will open where you can add an image. Have a wonderful day, Kathy
