Importing Question Banks

by Sophie An | Jan 17, 2018 | Assignments and quizzes, Canvas tips, Canvas updates

If you have questions organised into question banks that remain unused in quizzes, choose the export type as ‘Course’ when you create the export. You can choose to import all or selective question banks from the export package.

The importance of initial assignment setup

by Brígida | Dec 1, 2017 | Assignments and quizzes, Canvas tips, Canvas updates

It is important that you plan the structure of your assignments from the beginning of the semester. Having the correct assignment structure allows Canvas to calculate and submit the correct final grade to SSO using the Final Grades Tool.

Group assignment with individual submission

by Sophie An | Nov 20, 2017 | Assignments and quizzes, Canvas tips

In group assignments, regardless of whether grades are assigned to students individually or one mark for all students in the group, only one assignment submission will count for the entire group. To have students submit their assignments individually, do not enable group assignment when setting up the assignment.

Using moderated grading in assignments

by Sophie An | Nov 9, 2017 | Assignments and quizzes, Canvas tips, Canvas updates, Marking and grading

Moderated grading in Canvas allows multiple teaching staff to enter provisional grades and comments for an assignment. We recommend that you read the Canvas Community guides about moderated grading carefully before enabling the feature for an assignment.

Selecting multiple entries in online submission assignments

by Sophie An | Oct 17, 2017 | Assignments and quizzes, Canvas tips, Canvas updates

Online submission assignments allow students to upload and submit their assignments through Canvas. Up to four online entry options can be selected, but only one of the options can be used to submit the assignment at a time.

Using group assignment feature with Turnitin assignments

by Sophie An | Oct 10, 2017 | Assignments and quizzes, Canvas tips, Canvas updates

The group assignment feature cannot be used with a Turnitin LTI assignment in Canvas, but there are other ways to support group submissions in Canvas.
