[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]+1.  The complaint was that the parent had no clue that kids hadn't submitted things for weeks.  Parent Vue might show something missing that was turned in. But in general, it would alert you to the general existence of a problem.  But go ahead and continue to look for anyone else to blame.

Apart from ParentVue being largely inaccurate, I have reached out to specific teachers often after realizing my kids aren’t turning in work.  Why a teacher can’t alert me to that is beyond me.  But, you’re correct that I as the parent could get on top of things and I have tried to do so by logging on to ParentVue regularly, plus looking on Canvas several times per week.  But I’ll tell you that there have been *multiple times* this school year when I’ve reached out to a teacher to say “My kid is failing your class and was missing a bunch of work.  Can you please let us know how to submit what’s missing since I can’t tell after looking at Canvas and ParentVue for the last hour?”  And then waited *weeks* for a reply.  Could we be doing better?  Sure!  But one of us is working full time (not from home!) and the other is 11.  [/quote]

In case anyone else needs this info at this point:  in my kid’s experience when you can no longer submit an assignment in Canvas because the window for submissions has closed, if teacher will still accept the assignment (eg some will not accept late work less than 2 weeks before close of semester or similar), then kid can probably at minimum try emailing it to them with a note in email saying what it is and why it’s late.  Attach to an email and send. [/quote]
