Hear grading feedback as it arrives in Canvas
Review written grading feedback by listening to a spoken recap when you have a spare moment.
Trigger
Canvas Assignment Graded
Fires when a new submission for an assignment is graded.
Action
Text to speech
Converts text into speech and returns an audio file.
Why this helps
Written feedback and grading notes can pile up until there is a quiet block of time to read them.
- Make grading feedback easier to revisit without reopening each submission.
- Use short listening windows to catch up on recently graded work.
- Keep feedback grounded in the information returned by Canvas.

Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and ElevenLabs once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to create a spoken recap from the newly graded submission and its available feedback.
- 4Choose Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real graded submission.
Questions about this workflow
Will this workflow change a grade?
No. It creates audio from available grading information and does not modify Canvas grades.
Can it include feedback if none was returned?
No. The spoken recap can only use feedback and submission details that Canvas returns for the graded submission.
