I have a student who transferred to me from another class. What is the easiet and fastest way to find their grade from the prior class? I have to transfer these grades to my class gradebook. Thanks so much!
Hi @NikkiMitchell,
Des the student's original class have the exact same assignments as your class does? If so, I'd suggest having the original teacher provide you with a grade export file, filtered down to just that student (for privacy reasons). You could then either input the scores into your grades area manually, or if everything is identical (assignment titles, points, etc), you may be able to import that file right into your course. I'd really recommend entering the grades manually, because any small difference in your course from the original one could really throw off an automated import.
If the assignments in the original course are not the same as yours, that's a completely different situation and would require a much more unique/creative solution.

This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints".

But I can't find the new assessment in my assessments to add to Blocks 2 & 4. If I have to recreate for each class, they won't have the same questions. I also cannot find the option to…
Hello, I’m wondering if Differentiation Tags can be configured as part of a Blueprint course. Our goal is to store differentiated content (pages, assessments, etc.) centrally within the Blueprint and have it already associated with specific Differentiation Tags (e.g. Support, Core, Extension). After the Blueprint is…
Dear Forum members, In the past, I asked students to hide some worksheets in the Excel files they would upload to Canvas. I was only interested in the results of their Excel analysis, and asked students to hide the worksheets with raw data in them. This worked until last Fall, but now SpeedGrader is rendering all…
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…
