Grade Book: How do I add/edit a grade, or override an automatic grade, for one student?

ANSWER:

Grade Book: Add or Edit a Single Column Value for a Member

You can enter or edit a column's value for a single Student or Auditor member in your Grade Book. When editing a grade value for an existing member, and that grade belongs to a calculated, quiz, or assignment column, the value will display in Grade Book with a caret symbol (^) to indicate that it is overridden. NOTE: You cannot edit column values for the First Name, Last Name, User ID, and Role columns.

Role(s) Needed: These instructions apply to Instructors and Teaching Assistants (if TAs are permitted). 

Step 1: From a Grade Book tab screen, locate the member and column for which to add or edit a grade and click the existing value or line (displays if there is no grade yet).

TIP: If you cannot click the value, it is one that you cannot edit.

Step 2: In the popup box.

  • If you are editing a value in a Calculated, Letter Grade, Quiz, or Assignment column:
    • To use the default value for the column, select Revert to Original.
       
    • To change the value to a custom value, enter a new value in the Change to text box.
       
  • If you are editing a value in a Numeric, Selection List, Text, or Alphanumeric column, in the Change to text box or drop-down list, enter or select a new value.

NOTES:

  • The value you enter must be valid for the column type. For example, a numeric column can only accept numbers.
     
  • If you are making a change to a grade, it is hightly recommended to enter a reason in the Comment box. The View Audit History button allows you to view all changes made to all columns for this member
