Practical assessment logging in canvas

[david_hobba]

I'm very new to canvas and am having difficulties streamlining practical assessment observation forms:

Help !  it seems canvas wants each assessment to have its own page and an assessment cannot be conducted multiple times on one page and if doing direct in-class observations for a cohort of say 16 students it seems really difficult to navigate between students to check off student progress and give feedback.   

I teach commercial cookery and to assess  1 dish/meal we are often assessing the dish over 5-7 assessment criteria and I must have evidence of observing the same task multiple times.

• Do people use third-party apps/ plugins ? or am I yet to discover this functionality in canvas.

I have attached a sample outline our current paper-based assessment logs which I really need to revolutionize, please canvas tell me this is the place streamline and enhance this horribly dated and boring logbook and make assessment data collection and coalition easy peasy so I can get back to cooking with the students.

Hello! What have you ended up doing for this need? We also do practical assessment and have built rubrics to meet the need. We use them with a set of "no submission" assignments and have that saved as a module in our Institutions specific Canvas Commons instance.
There is still the problem of having to grade students one by one but speed grader has been am improvement for us with this vs the word documents we used before Canvas. Now that we've been doing that for 2 years, we're looking into other options we have for doing this better, either with default Canvas features or perhaps if we should use some LTIs. We also have a need to check off progress as well as give feedback, both coaching type feedback and then more official assessment type feedback.
