A: Unfortunately, whenever you make an assignment that does not "post to: everyone", there is no grade pass back. I always ask myself, is the differentiation worth manually entering these grades? For me, the differentiation usually wins and I will manually enter that assignment, but I am perhaps biased because I spent six years using an LMS that was not linked to my SIS because my admin didn't know it was a possibility LOL

Why is it that teachers are expected to work so much on their own time? Where are the trainings for everything you want us to do? Where is the modeling? Many of our trainings just refer us to other resources or hyperlinks we could use but aren't gone over in our trainings. Also, when we are going down the rabbit hole and learning through observation of others through video tutorials, our Canvas is set up differently by our district. Sorry not just  a question but wanted to provide background information.

Jen, I have been so blessed with grade level teachers sharing their curriculum modules with other teachers throughout the district. There are certain teachers that have been incredibly successful with many aspects of Canvas. Others like me have worked hard, have been willing, but have had major bumps in the road. I would be so grateful if we had paid grade level colleagues that would be available to come alongside others to troubleshoot, design and encourage.  The problem, as I have experienced it, has been colleagues are so busy with their own Canvas content and other teaching responsibilities  that there is very little time to help each other. I've used the Canvas hotline in the past, but it extremely hard to talk to anyone...long wait times. A priority needs to be getting support to the teachers by way of other teachers...not mostly "how to" instruction sheets and K-12 Canvas Workshops.
