New Quizzes in ModulesNew Quizzes can now be created when adding quizzes to a module. What is New Quizzes?New Quizzes is an assessment engine that provides an improved interface for creating quizzes/tests. The original quiz engine, called Classic Quizzes, is still available for instructors not using New Quizzes.
Once the assignment has been reassigned, students will find it in their assignments list. |
Canvas Grades when downloaded can be a bit confusing as it automatically creates percentages for assignments per either your grouping or dependent where they are located. I am re-posting a past blog on this topic here.
Here are some files which may also help.

This question comes across my desk frequently, how can I print a test with answers in Canvas. At this time the only way it can be done for large exams is to export the quiz in Canvas.
Go to Settings, Export Content, Select Quiz, Select the Quiz to Export, it will create the QTI Export (refresh your screen to see it, you will also get an email)
Click the link to download, it will be a zip file.
Open Respondus Test Generator, switch profile to IMS QTI, import questions and switch the the Import from type file to zipped IMS QTI as it does not come up by default.
Proceed as usual with Test Setup in Respondus, give it a name, preview and then you can print with answers etc.
Studio is a great tool for short lectures, assignment reviews and giving students a face to a lecture. If you have been using it for the past semesters you might want to gather specific recordings into a Collection.
You can create collections in your Canvas Studio library. Creating a collection allows you to organize your media library and share specific collections and media with other users. A Collection also makes it easy to share multiple videos with another course, faculty or students.

If you’ve made errors while entering grades (and who among us hasn’t accidentally found ourselves entering grades in the wrong column before?), the grade rollback feature might be your new best friend. In your gradebook, if you click on the gear wheel in the top left, the first item on the drop-down menu is “view grading history.” Like with page rollbacks, this allows you to revert back to the previous save point.
If you have multiple documents you would like your students to be able to look at side-by-side, insert a blank table on your page and then insert a document into each cell. Students can click on one document at a time to view it full screen or can scroll through documents right next to each other to compare and contrast them.

Qwickly Attendance: Cross-listed CoursesIf sections are cross-listed but you prefer to manage attendance separately, in the Student Grouping setting, enable By Course Section. If not enabled, Qwickly will combine cross-listed courses into a single list. We’ve also updated our Qwickly Attendance Guide to include this topic. |
This new tool allows instructors to generate and download four types of reports for rubrics being used in used in any Canvas course. To ensure valid data, rubric name and structure must be identical across course(s).
