Canvas Assignments include Quizzes (assessments and surveys), graded Discussions, and online submissions (paper submissions). The Assignments page shows your students all of the Assignments that will be expected of them in the course and how many points each one is worth. You can assign a particular Assignment to the entire class, one group of students, or a single student. To learn how to do this, see the "Differentiated Assignments" link below. You can also create peer review assignments that require students to offer feedback on one another's work. For more information, see the "peer review" link below.
