There are two correct answers to this item, due to the fact that Canvas (as eleborated on in the interviews with top-level administrators) has two kinds of calendars; those being a user’s personal calendar, as well as the calendar for a specific course. Only the user is able to view their personal calendar, but everybody in a course is able to view the course’s calendar. Therefore, answer choices “only the student” as well as “only the student, the professor, the teaching assistants (TAs) and the other students in the course” are equally correct. Additionally, “only the student, the professor, and the teaching assistants (TAs) in the course” could be considered a semi-correct response as well, as it does indicate “the student” as a party with access, which could have been considered by some respondents as being representative not only of a single student, but all of the students in a class.
Correct response rates for administrators, faculty, and students were 64%, 54%, and 77%, respectively. Next-best answer choice rates were 17%, 9%, and 8%, respectively. A higher percentage of students chose the correct answer over other groups. “Don’t know” response rates were relatively high across the board, with 19% for administrators, 35% for faculty, and 14% for students, indicating higher levels of uncertainty with this item throughout all three groups.
