If you want to grade assignments without knowing who submitted them, you can hide student names in SpeedGrader for anonymous grading. Hiding student names is done on a per-assignment basis.

If you want to hide student names for all assignments in a course, learn how to manage feature options in the course features lesson.

Note: Hiding names in SpeedGrader does not affect names in the Gradebook and must be done separately. Learn how to hide student names in the Gradebook.

If you created an outcome in your course that you need to edit or delete, you can do so as long as the outcome has not yet been used to assess a student. Once the outcome has been aligned with an item or artifact and used for scoring, you cannot modify the outcome.

You can delete an outcome group as long as it does not contain any outcomes that cannot be modified.

Notes:

• Unless you have permission, you cannot modify an outcome or outcome group that was added at the account level
• Outcomes that cannot be edited but can be deleted are aligned with a question bank but have not yet been used to assess a student

State and Common Core Standards are goals objectives for student assessment in the United States. These standards have been created by the nation's governors and educational leaders to assess specific student learning.

All State Standards added at the account or sub-account levels are available to you as an instructor.

• Common Core Standards are available for Language Arts, Math, and Science (NGSS)
• State-specific standards are available for Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies (if imported by your institution)
• Your Canvas Administrator must import the standards before you can find and import them for a course

State and Common Core Standards imported to the account or sub-account levels can be found within the Account Standards outcome group. However, all Common Core Standards are always available as a separate outcome group for importing.

If finding an outcome does not display any State or Common Core standards, or if you would like to use non-core standards for subjects such as PE, Health, Art, etc., please contact your Canvas Administrator.

When you integrate a student information system (SIS) in Canvas, In courses, only assignments are automatically configured to send grades to the SIS; graded discussions and quizzes have to be configured on a case-by-case basis. However, at the account level, you can configure all assignment types to be sent to your SIS automatically.

Even after setting all assignments to be sent to the SIS, instructors can still manage assignments in their courses and manually remove individual assignments, graded discussions, or quizzes that they do not want to send to your SIS. Assignments can be managed from the Assignments page and Quizzes page, or they can be managed when creating an SIS assignment, SIS graded discussion, or SIS quiz.

Note: Student information systems must be configured by your Customer Success Manager. You cannot configure your SIS submissions unless a specific feature option is enabled for your account. Learn more about feature options in the account features lesson.
