Canvas – Google Assignments LTI 1.3 Assignment – Pixel Art Google Sheet

Find the Pixel Art you want to use and prepare it to be shared via Canvas.

1. Look in Facebook or other locations for the PixelArt you will use and copy it to your school Google drive.
2. File / Make a Copy / add blank on the end of the name
   
3. Edit the file so it is ready for students to use. For this one I had to remove the answers so the image did not show
   
4. and hide a second sheet tab so that students could not access that sheet. Also go to share and make sure you have shared with “anyone with the link” and that it is able to be edited as an editor.
   
5. Make sure you know where this file is saved in your school Google Drive.

Google Assignments LTI 1.3 + Canvas SpeedGrader
Towards the end of June, Google will begin rolling out an upgrade for the Google Assignments LTI 1.3 tool to have the same SpeedGrader capabilities as the old tool. When creating a new assignment with Google Assignments, instructors will have the option to grade student grade work using SpeedGrader or Google’s grading interface. This will enable instructors to attach files to make a copy/template for each student and/or use Google’s originality reports feature for plagiarism analysis while also providing instructors flexibility on their grading interface of choice.

2. View each student and give them a grade. Grades will move over to Canvas grade book and then you can sync to Skyward if you wish.
