I really hope it will go back to how it was. Moving the publish button below not only takes up more space, but also makes it easy to accidentally unpublish when trying to click on the module.
Hi everyone I have to have atleast 6 people fill out a survey about the usability of canvas's UI for an assignment it takes maximum 5 minutes please help me out here is the link
I've had this issue before with other quizzes but never this bad, usually 2-3 questions with 1 answer not showing. I can download the images and see what each answer is supposed to be but my school makes me use a lockdown browser for tests. im worried it will be this bad on the test and I wont be able to download the images at all and fail because of stupid canvas not loading the images. Has anyone had this issue before and knows of a way to fix it?
I was looking through my summer class on Canvas and went into the Files section just to see what was posted. I clicked on a document, and as soon as it opened I realized it was an answer key for one of our future assignments. I immediately closed it as soon as I realized what it was.
I didn't download it, print it, or intentionally read through it. I literally just opened it and closed it.
Can professors see that I opened the file? Will they know I clicked on it, or does Canvas only track downloads/views in certain situations? I'm probably overthinking this, but I really don't want to get in trouble for accidentally opening it.
Just wondering this because it seems a little concerning to me since I'm taking a quiz soon and have had to take a lot at home recently (meaning if I were somehow "cheating," I could not really prove the fact I wasn't). Out of anxiousness, I like to reread prompts and often don't move my mouse unless I am answering questions, and sometimes, during open-note quizzes, I check my answers. I've been searching around the internet, and it makes me feel a little anxious about whether it is true or not.
I was looking through the Files section of my summer Canvas course and noticed my professor accidentally uploaded the answer key to one of our homework assignments.
I want to download it and save it for later (after I've finished the assignment), but I don't want my professor to get a notification or see that I downloaded it.
Does Canvas let instructors see who downloads files, or is that information not visible to them? Has anyone who's used Canvas as an instructor or student know how this works?
It seems to be standard practice for instructors teachings online courses in Canvas to assign a discussion post and then require comments on one or two other student’s posts. I imagine these required replies were meant to recreate in-person class discussions and debate in an online environment, but the actual result is the opposite. Instead the easiest path to completion is empty praise and pandering agreement.
No true in-depth discussion is actually started, and no one bothers to return to read the replies their post received or respond to them. It is yet another failed attempt to mimic real life online with underwhelming results.
And yet, nearly all instructors employ this assignment structure. I have total respect for the ONE instructor who does follow this pattern. Few to none of the instructors engages or responds to any post or reply themselves, leading me to wonder if they’re readings them at all. And theirs is the opinion I‘m interested in most.
its been quite a while since there was any activity on their Github? does anyone have a clue other than them being hacked recently?
7/1 10:36 am CT, Im trying to do some work and I just keep getting a reload page. Anyone else?
I was fortunate enough to have stayed logged on so I could submit assignments today while others couldn't.
I have never used the Peer Review feature on Canvas, but I'd like to start. However, I am thinking of an idea and I have no way to test it, because it will require me seeing a bunch of different students' dashboards with submissions. Can anyone help?
I want to assign an assignment due at 8:00 a.m. on Wednesday. I want to have my students do a Peer Review for that same assignment due at 8:00 a.m. on Friday. So do I create the assignment, make the assignment due on Wednesday, and then the Peer Review due on Friday?
It makes me nervous that I cannot adequately test this feature.
Just got an email from my uni. Did anyone else get it?
Please take 2 minutes out of your day and answer this form about canvas assignments!
A test inside canvas Can detect if you exit the tab but wondering if it notices if you switch a desktop completely. Anyone know? I’d be great help :)
Honest curiousity: what are you biggest pet peeves about Canvas. I actually like it pretty well, but if I could change anything, it would be make rubrics easier to import and make peer review work in the mobile app the same as it does in the browser.
What do y'all find the most frustrating abojt Canvas?
My team and I had been using Canvas Free for Teachers to send out reminders for clinical consultation calls. However, Canvas continues to send out meeting announcements despite us recently changing our meeting schedule. Is there any way I can contact Canvas to stop them from sending out outdated information?
Hey everyone I'm a little confused right now I cannot access canvas And I keep Getting these Messages, At first I thought It was my browser (opera) But then It kept happening with other browsers too, Does anyone else have this problem?
How do I fix this? I am unable to access my homework. Every time I click on a link or an assignment this pops up.
I’ve been teaching using Canvas for 10 years across 4 colleges, and I’m suddenly having an issue with images I have embedded in my pages for the first time as of this month.
When I copy my previous course (all content) OR import it from a Canvas export file, about 75% of the images are broken in student view. This is happening in multiple colleges I work at; it isn’t specific to one college.
Help desk says this is because the images are referring back to my old course that the pages were copied from, and students don’t have access to my old course (only I do).
But I’ve never had this issue before in 10 years and I copy courses every semester.
I’m having to re-embed dozens of images across 4 active courses right now.
What is going on?? I’m worried I’ll have to do this again in the fall and it’s going to cost me hours and hours of work. Of course I’m an adjunct so my pay doesn’t change based on extra Canvas work, so trying to avoid that.
As the title says, I'm trying to see if there's a way to ensure instructors added to my course can only see the modules they're assigned.
So here's a bit of context:
I currently have a course with about 15 modules. Each module is written by a different developer and a majority of them are "proprietary information" that they don't want to share with other developers. What we're currently doing is to have all these modules as very short courses and then each intake (and instructor) is added to the course which has their intake number. But as you can see, this means that each intake has 15 courses and this can become a nightmare for our ops team once there's multiple intakes ongoing concurrently, especially when there's updates to the courses.
To reduce the work of the ops team and ensure that there's no mistakes when updating the courses, I'm thinking of use Blueprints so that the child courses can be synced with a click of a button.
So now I'm wondering: is it possible for instructors to be added to just particular modules in a course and not be able to see the other modules, or do I have to bite the bullet and create 15 blueprints?
