Moos-a-dee 🫎So on my commuting I was thinking of like... what if I made a "teacher tech" website and one of the features was just a gallery of styled up nice layouts and themes for Canvas LMS Pages, with instructions on how to copy/paste the HTML into your own Canvas page and customize.
Ted Pavlic (he/him)Seems like #CanvasLMS drop policy has fatal flaw when you designate a certain assignment to not be dropped. If a student happens to miss that assignment, then Canvas drops the SECOND lowest, which means it usually leads to a WORSE score than not dropping.
Roger SchürchDoes anyone know where to start if I wanted to use the #CanvasLMS API to publish course content pages (and maybe Beamer slides PDFs) from #Orgmode in #Emacs directly to my course? Or has anyone worked out a solution already? I would so very much like to not copy paste my course content manually into Canvas pages ...
Some would argue that the matching problem on top and the multiple-answer problem on the bottom should receive the same score, but #Instructure does not. Rather than choosing one convention for how to score them, #CanvasLMS decided to just use two different conventions...
Suddenly my Canvas pages aren't loading tonight, and it's because I have addons that block cross site stuff without permission, wtf is pendo io, go to its page, wtf is this and why is it in Canvas now. #CanvasLMS
I already had this code laying around but I integrated my PHP page that uses the Canvas LMS API to get my "To Do" list and am loading it into a proper freaking table. I can also get due date / end date and some other data but this is really all I need to help me with grading. #Education #CanvasLMS

Found this (new?) setting in the Course Accommodation settings in #CanvasLMS. I can understand giving students more time, but randomly dropping an incorrect answer from all multiple-choice questions?! How does someone determine that THIS is the right accommodation for anyone?

It would be nice if #CanvasLMS had a place for "private notes" on each assignment so I can make notes on what to update for the following semester. I do that anyway but it's in a text file, it would be nice to have it ON the assignment itself.
