Click the Grades link in Courses Navigation.

The Gradebook helps instructors easily input and distribute grades for students. Grades for each assignment can be calculated as points, percentages, complete or incomplete, pass or fail, GPA scale, and letter grades, and assignments can be organized into groups for weighting as well.

You can also use Grading Tool to help you assign out grades.

Columns are automatically created in the Gradebook when you create Assignments, graded Discussions, and graded Quizzes and Surveys. A column is also automatically added for the Attendance tool.

Use the Gradebook to:

• View assignment submission notifications and assignment details
• Sort the gradebook by assignment due dates, student names, secondary id, total scores, or group scores (if applicable)
• Download assignment submissions from students to grade or view them offline when no internet connection is available
• Manually enter student grades
• Automatically calculate total and final grades
• Assign zeros after deadline (this will send a notification out to students)
• Simultaneously view grade information across all courses
• Notify students when an assignment has been graded
• View Grade history and revert updated assignment scores to previous scores (including grades from multiple submissions and/or regraded quizzes)
• Download or upload Grades as a CSV file
• Hide grades from students until they are published
• Create custom weighting, curving, and grade ranges
• Message students who haven’t submitted an assignment yet, or who scored more than X or less than Y on an assignment
• Leave private grading notes/comments for the student
