Why this helps

Writing individualized feedback after grading takes focus and time, especially when the queue is long.

  • Reduce repetitive feedback drafting
  • Keep feedback tied to the assignment and submission context available in the event
  • Leave the instructor in control of review and delivery

  • 1Connect Canvas and Ai ml api once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
  • 3Describe in one instruction how to draft constructive feedback using the available assignment and grading context.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission and review the draft.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow post the feedback to Canvas?

No. The selected action generates text; it does not post to Canvas. Review and share the draft separately.

Can I ask for a particular tone?
