What is a 'what if' score?
Hi @Lilliegj12,
The what-if scores are a way for students to see how their final grade will be impacted *if* they get hypothetical grades on assignments. There is a guide for this at What are What-If Grades? - Instructure Community . Students could use these in various ways... For example, if just the final exam were left, they could experiment and find out how well they need to do on the exam to get their desired final grade. They could also see how failing to do an assignment (getting a 0) would impact their final grade.
I hope this info helps!

We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…

Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
