Grade Visibility in Canvas Quizzes
Last modified on 31 January 2025 10:46 AM

In New Quizzes, instructors should be aware that Canvas has two separate settings that control when grades are released to students after they complete a quiz. To prevent grades from being immediately released after automatic grading, both settings must be changed from their default settings:

1. Quiz Settings

    • After clicking 'Build', in the Settings (shown below), toggle On "Hide results from students".
      Otherwise, students will immediately see their quiz score along with the quiz questions, and will be able to revisit the quiz page to view it.

      toggle to hide results

2. Gradebook Settings

    • In the gradebook, the grade posting policy must be set to 'manually post grades' and the column hidden from students, bearing the label "Manual" .
      Otherwise, the grade will be visible in the student's grade report.
