Is it possible to set a grading scheme for individual students or groups of students within a class who might need different grading standards than other students?
If not, could this feature be added?
Could you make 2 versions of the assignment, each with a different rubric?
Hello @OregonBG
Thanks for posting this in the global Canvas Community!
I looked into this for a little bit for you. What I found was that you could set up a Grading Scheme for the specific assignment. Essentially, you would select Letter grade as the Display Grade As area of the assignment in edit. From there you can see an option to View Grading Schemes. You would then assign the assignment to the specific students. This should make it so that only the students assigned to the assignment will be graded based on the scheme you select. Of course. you will need to setup a duplicate assignment for the students you are not using the scheme to grade with. This might not be the best option if you are using group assignments and discussions, unless the students you are using the specified scheme with are all in the same group.
HERE is a guide on how that works for assignments.

Other than that, the only other option I could think of would be to move the students to a new course and set the grading scheme up in that course to be used. I was able to locate THIS presented idea that sorta touches on allowing Multiple Grading Schemes to be used for each student.
Hopefully this helps!

Wow, it's been a few years since I've revisited this.
Unfortunately the situation hasn't changed. There still is not a means of having differentiated grading scales for different students (like those on a modified diploma path). Of course you can alter your grading scale, but you can't apply more than one to different students or even sections of students.
I appreciate the ideas above, but in the end these are just work-arounds that end up adding more assignments and cluttering the gradebook.
One possible fix in the developers end would be to allow grading schemes for created sections. Users could then assign groups of students to those sections. Assignments would only appear once and assigned to all sections, but the overall calculation of letter grade would be based on what section they were in.
Summary:The Learning Mastery Gradebook allows drag-and-drop reordering of outcome columns, and this triggers a call to /api/v1/courses/:course_id/assign_outcome_order. The API returns 204 No Content (success), but the column order does not persist after page refresh. Steps to Reproduce: Open Learning Mastery Gradebook for…
We have enabled the automatic migration of Classic to New Quizzes. When we import QTI files, though, they always fail to load as New Quizzes. If we disabled New Quiz Migration, it works. Why does it only work for Classic Quizzes? Are there any guaranteed tools that will generate QTI files that will import correctly as New…
Is it possible to change the system-wide notification defaults for a hosted Canvas instance? Since I can't find a way to do it, nor any reference to doing it, I'm assuming not but wanted to make sure before I give that as an answer.
Hi everyone, I had a teacher reach out with an odd (and concerning) LockDown Browser issue and wanted to see if others have experienced something similar. A student was taking a quiz using Respondus LockDown Browser on a Chromebook 300e Yoga G4 (8GB), a 2‑in‑1 device that can flip into tablet mode. During the active quiz,…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
