What does "this quiz has been re-graded; your score was affected" mean?

When accessing a quiz in Canvas, students may see a message stating, "This quiz has been re-graded; your score was affected." This notification can cause confusion, as students may not immediately know what changes were made to their quiz score or why the re-grading occurred.

The notification "This quiz has been re-graded; your score was affected" means that the instructor has made changes to the quiz that resulted in an adjustment to your score. These changes could involve correcting an answer key, awarding points for additional answers, or removing a question from the quiz.

To understand what specifically changed and how it impacted your score, do the following:

  1. Reach out to your instructor via Canvas messaging or email.
  2. Ask for clarification on what changes were made to the quiz and how your score was adjusted.

Now you should have a clear understanding of why your quiz score changed.
