After 5 years and this is still not solved without workarounds?Looks like a validation that Canvas is not the right LMS for our class. 

@rebyers ... Not completely sure how the whole "community voting on something" works, but this seems so basic and obvious (and already implemented elsewhere) that it's baffling it hasn't been addresse...

My teacher and I are trying to figure out how to send an assignment through canvas after the class was removed. Who do I contact to help send the assignment?

@melder ... Thank you for coming back to reply.  I do understand the frustration.  When I worked at a Technical College in Wisconsin, I wans't able to install software on my computer, either.  We had ...

@JoAnneHarris ... Just to expand on what @paul_fynn has stated, if you are unable to add other people to your course on your own, you will need to reach out to your school's Canvas administrator or so...

This definitely helped me wrap my head around the idea of Co-Convened courses @Chris_Hofer Thank you for providing me with an example on how this works!

Thank you for the reply! That's what I thought it meant earlier in the semester, but this assignment has me baffled by it. The entire class has orange dots, but the assignment isn't due until next Wed...

Hi @Luara, The orange dots will generally indicate that there is a submission/resubmission waiting to be graded for that student.  The  How do I use the student list to view student subm... - Instruct...

I'm new to Canvas, and I cannot figure out what the orange dot means next to each student's name in the upper-right dropdown menu in Speed Grader. I though it was used to indicate that the student had...

I am not sure if there is a way to set Speed Grader to the first option rather than the most recent so cannot answer that. For the other question, multiple submissions for a single assignment should n...

That is totally understandable. There is a spot in the question for you to indicate multiple possible answers and that might take care of your concern. You could put "Louis & Clark" as a second possib...

On assignments that have open-ended questions, the default submission (if multiples are allowed) to load on the Speed Grader is the most recent. I have two questions: Is there a way to set the Speed G...

Thanks for this info, Jeff.  The problem for me is that I'm dealing with some odd answers that automatic grading wouldn't accept.  For example, if the answer is "Right of Deposit" and a student writes...
