Within Canvas assignments, I would like the option to create questions where credit is awarded for completion only (and not correctness).  Students should not be able to view that these questions are graded for completion only.   For example, I would...

I'm not sure I'm wording this correctly, but I was asked if I was able to determine  the number of observer accounts associated with current students (what's the % of parents who've become observers)Percentage of Observers who are actually active I p...

I hope this question is comprehendible!  Is it possible to take the guardian info from the SIS and somehow make that guardian the observer for a student?  This way, all students have a guardian linked right from the start?  We are finding that there ...

I'm trying to organize a self-paced orientation on Canvas for next year's summer intake.Any advice on how to set up a course where students can go through the material at their own pace but still stay on track?

Has anyone set up an orientation on Canvas that works well for both in-person and remote students?We’re expecting students from various locations this time, and I want to make sure it’s accessible for everyone.

I'm looking to create an orientation course for 200-300 new students who join my institute. We have 2 campuses, and two intakes each year. Our orientation course currently runs for over two weeks, but I want to extend it for up to a month and spread ...

Dear Madam / Sir.My current three Canvas LMS courses, DG4BBR, 98FMXT, and GETP3G, are their course codes, but I have an issue with posting new or reading the old announcement messages. My students and I can read the title list. However, the message i...

It seems like the observer role in Canvas is very basic but maybe I'm not finding it correctly. Here is what I'm picturing and not sure if it exists (YET). Observer logs onto Canvas.Sees a list of their children.They can easily see their children's g...

Hi there,I am a tutor and several of my clients use canvas. They want me to log into their gradebooks and help monitor their assignments/grades. Is there any way a tutor can log in to multiple student accounts and view their activity? One student gav...

Hello - I'm trying to find a student pairing code so I can add my child to my canvas account.  However, when I go to my account and then settings, the option to "Pair with observer" is not there - how can I add my child then? Thank you.

I am  a Teacher's Assistant for a course and wanted to change the timings for my office hours, just wanted to know if people get notified when i change the simple syllabus or would i have to send out messages to the entire class about the change i ma...

I received a pairing code from my student's teacher but when I signed up, I think she paired me with her account and made me a student instead of an observer for my student. I deleted her courses (I think) and now I don't have the option to use my st...

Hello, I think it would be helpful for there to be a "Mark As Read" button on the Canvas Notifications email when there is a discussion post. I usually read all of the posts there and then later see in Canvas that I have multiple unread posts only to...

Hello, We have recently begun using the Observer role in some courses to link student mentors and tutors with students in need.  However, we're running into an unforeseen issue. Some observers are also students in the same class.  When they look at t...

Why can't i download reading resources from my students courses? When I try and enter my email and password for canvas it says my password is incorrect.  Does the observer login not allow for down loading? 

I frequently disappointed at having to use the Gradebook through a "letterbox" view on a large monitor.  Many of the list-based screens in Canvas are restricted to a pixel height, which results in a table of only 10 rows (with a scrollbar), when the ...
