Correct answers are in accordance to interviews with top-level IT administrators at CU Boulder, UCCS, and CU Denver. Answers correspond to the LMS Canvas, and not to other systems, though the configurations of Canvas were modeled off of previously-used LMSs (D2L at CU Boulder, and Blackboard at UCCS were mentioned), so it is not out of the question to assume similar settings for different systems. Answers vary slightly across schools, but are overall very similar.

CU Boulder: Parties mentioned as having viewing access to this data include the student (students can only see their own grades), instructors, teaching assistants (TAs), graders (if applicable), top-level IT administrators, and Instructure personnel.

UCCS: Parties mentioned as having viewing access to this data include the student (students can only see their own grades), instructors, TAs, graders, (if applicable), system administrators, and Instructure personnel.

CU Denver: Parties mentioned as having viewing access to this data include the student (students can only see their own grades), instructors, TAs, IT administrators, It sub-account administrators (only for their specific college/school), IT help-desk workers, and Instructure personnel.

Most-Correct Survey Response Choice: “Only the student, the professor, and the teaching assistants (TAs) in the course.”
