Viewing Your Grades

Do you want to know what grade you earned on an assessment or your overall grade for your Lincoln Learning course while using Canvas? There are a few ways to see your grades, so let's explore how to find them. From your dashboard in Canvas, you will see on the right hand side a column named recent feedback. Here you can see assignments from any course that have been recently graded or submitted by and yet to be graded assignments. Click an assessment with a teacher update to see your score and teacher feedback on the submission details page. To see your overall grades at a quick glance, click the View Grade button underneath the Recent Feedback section. This will direct you to a list of all the courses you are taking and the current overall grade. Click on a course to view specific assignment grades. You will be directed to the grades tab of the course which is also accessible on the left hand navigation pane from the course. You may see a blue number next to the grades button indicating new grades posted. The grades tab identifies the name of the Assess It, due date, date submitted, and score. By default, Assess Its are listed alphabetically but you can easily change how they are sorted by choosing different options. If you sort by module, the assignments will appear in the sequence they are meant to be completed. For the score, a line remains where your score will be recorded until the instructor gives a grade. You will also notice a blue to indicate there is a new comment to catch the student's attention. Once the assignment is graded, you will see the number over the total points possible. Want more details about an assessment score? You may spot a few different icons here. If you see a speech bubble then either a comment was created to show the number of submission attempts or your teacher left feedback. Another option is to click on the assessment name to get more information. Mastery Assessments may have a projected score until the instructor instructor has graded any essay questions. The projected score is based on the auto graded questions. Then the final score will appear in this space. Remember, your teacher and observer can see this information as well. As you can see, keeping track of your progress and scores is easy in the Canvas learning management system.
