Entering Grades

Overview
Grades can be entered into the Grade Center in a variety of ways. Scores from gradable items that have been added to the content of a course such as online tests, exams, and surveys are automatically entered into the Grade Center. Grades from an external source, such as a Comma-separated Value File or an Excel spreadsheet, can be uploaded to the Grade Center, eliminating the need for double entry. Other grades can be manually entered into the Grade Center using any of the views of the Grade Center.

Automatically Entered Grades
Assessments that are added to the content of a Course are scored online, and the grades for those assessments are automatically recorded in the corresponding Grade Center column. Grades that are automatically scored can be modified manually.

Manually Entering Grades
Grades can be entered in any Grade Center cell in the Grade Center or any Smart View of the Grade Center or from the Grade Detail page.

To enter a grade from the Grade Center, follow these steps:

  1. Move the cursor over the desired cell and click.
  2. Type the value.
  3. Press Enter.

Note: If Enter is not pressed, and the user attempts to exit the entry cell or Grade Center, a dialog box will appear asking if the user would like to save the grade entry. If so, in the dialog box, select OK to save the grade.
