Bio:
I currently teach students enrolled in CIS courses at Sauk Valley Community College in Dixon, IL. I teach a wide variety of courses, but mostly software and productivity courses. Previously to that, I was the director of the college's instructional design department where I supervised the implementation of Canvas on our campus as faculty migrated courses from Moodle to Canvas. (As well as many other projects.) Previous to that, I was employed in a rural k-12 school district where I taught 3rd grade, 5th grade, 8th Grade social science, and computer technology. (Small school district teachers have to be versatile!) I have a Master in Educational Technology degree from Pepperdine University. I completed a Bachelor of Education degree at Illinois State University.

HI @JJacobs7  I have to agree with @SusanNiemeyer .  77 modules to scroll through is a lot.  While your folks might be able to handle it, why create a frustrating learning environment when you don't n...

Hi @LucasCrosbie  I believe this is an issue with the preview generator in Canvas.  There isn't much you can do about if you want to use .pptx files.  Some alternatives would be to export your PowerPo...

Hi @SydCorb  Check the settings in the 3rd party. There might be a setting there that will score incomplete work as zero after the due date has passed.  The system I use does that for me.
