Course Administration: Grades

Overview

Grades is the course gradebook: every learner's score on every graded subsection, plus their total. From here you can search and filter learners and override an individual score.

The heading shows how many learners are listed, for example "Showing 2 of 2 learners". Chips at the right show the course's grading policy, for example "AI Assessment · 60%" and "Capstone Assessment · 40%".

Target Audience

Features

Search

"Search by username, email or student key" narrows the table as you type.

Filters

Opens a panel of filters, applied with Apply filters and reset with Clear:

• Assignments: Assignment type, Assignment, and Assignment grade (minimum and maximum %). Pick an assignment before filtering by its grade.
• Overall grade: minimum and maximum %.
• Learner groups: Track, Cohort, and Include course team members.

Percentages must be between 0 and 100, and the minimum can't be above the maximum. Each active filter appears as a removable chip under the toolbar, with Clear all. The Filters button shows how many are active.

Percent / Absolute

Percent shows each score as a percentage (for example "85%"); Absolute shows points earned out of points possible.

Gradebook table

One row per learner, with their name and email, a column per graded subsection (short labels such as "AI 01" or "CAP 01"), and Total, the overall grade with its letter grade. A dash means no score yet. The table shows 25 learners per page, with Previous and Next. If no one matches, it reads "No learners match these filters."

Override grade

Click a score to open Override grade for that learner and subsection. It shows the Current score and the Original (before overrides) score, and a History of earlier overrides. Enter a New score (out of N) and an optional Reason ("Visible in the override history"), then click Save override. A message confirms "Grade updated for {learner}".

Frozen grades

When the course's grades are frozen, a "Grades are frozen" pill appears and scores can't be changed.
