Release Criteria: 4. How do I release an item to students based on information in the Grade Book?

ANSWER:

Release Criteria: Grade Book Criteria

If you want to release an item to Students and Auditors based on information in the Grade Book, you can add Grade Book criteria to the item. Example: If you want to release a bonus assignment only to Students who receive an A on a semester assignment, you can add Grade Book criteria to the bonus assignment so that it will be released only to Students who receive greater than 90 out of 100 on the semester assignment.

IMPORTANT: If you add Grade Book criteria to an item, ensure the item is set to show. If the item is hidden, when the release criteria is satisfied, the item will not be visible. For more information, see Showing or Hiding Items Using the Selective Release Tool.

Role(s) Needed: These instructions apply to Instructors and Designers.

Step 1: From the Build or Teach tab, click Selective Release on the Designer Tools (Build tab) menu or Instructor Tools (Teach tab) menu:

Step 2: From the Selective Release screen,

Locate the item to which you want to add Grade Book criteria. TIP: To display the items in a folder or learning module, next to the name of the folder or learning module, click the Expand icon. The items in the content folder or learning module display.

To display items in a folder or learning module, next to the title of the folder or learning module, click the Expand icon. All items in the folder or learning module display.

Step 3: In the row of the item, under Release Criteria, click Set Release Criteria.

Step 4: Click Add Grade Book Criteria.

Step 5: From the Criteria drop-down list, select a Grade Book column.

Step 6: From the Condition drop-down list, select the condition that you want to use with the Grade Book criterion.

Step 7: If the condition requires a value, in the Value text box, enter the value you want the Grade Book criterion and condition to meet.

Step 8: Click Save to add the Grade Book criterion.

When you are finished adding release criteria to the item, click Save on the Set Release Criteria for screen. The item will be released when the release criteria are satisfied. To indicate that release criteria have been set for the item, in folders and the tool in which the item was created, the word Conditional appears in parentheses next to the item.
