I am new to Canvas, but I am pleased with what I have found so far. The one issue that I have (that no one on my local level can seem to solve) has to do with the SIS importation into my grade book. I have a class that I have combined all three sections and we have a rotating block schedule so that the classes meet on different days. If I set an assignment up with a due date that is the same for all of my classes, I have no issue with my assignments and grades importing into my grade book. If I set different due dates for submission on an assignment, it fails to import the assignment and grade into the grade book.
I like the feature of setting different days so that students who miss the class can log on at home and clearly see what assignments they are missing, so. . . . is there a trick I need to know to get the system to import these assignments?
Scott, could you provide a little more information about what program you are trying to connect with Canvas for the grade import? That will help us better understand the issue and what might be done to help fix the issue.
Thanks!
