I've been using Canvas so years and never had this issue until this week. There are two assignments that I have to manually grade (discussion board) and a summary. I input the grades manually, but after touching Enter and going to the next student, t...

Hello,We run a canvas integration with CAMS. When a student is added to a course or removed from a course in CAMS, they are either added or removed from the course in CANVAS. A student moved from section 1 of a course to section 2. They were changed ...

When aligning outcomes, what is the benefit or difference between aligning outcomes to the quiz and aligning outcomes to the questions within the quiz itself? I see data by question when aligning by question and that works great. Will the data be the...
