How do I reply to submission comments through my MECC E-mail as an instructor?

First, you must set your notification settings to receive email notifications for any comments the students post with assignment/test submissions (and in the grades feedback area).

 

  • Login to Canvas and click on Account, then Notifications

  • Inside your Notifications, find the row titled “Submission Comment”

      • You can choose to be notified immediately, daily summary, weekly summary, or not at all. Hover over the icons to see what each represents.  

  • This will enable assignment submission as well as grade feedback replies to come to your MECC email.  You can reply directly from your email, and it will show up in the Grades Feedback area.
