Extend Grading Period for Term as Administrator

Question

Hello,

How would a Canvas administrator properly extend the grading period for all faculty to enter grades?

I had thought it may be under grading period, but it appears the necessary settings may be under terms instead.  Is it as simple as navigating to Admin > Terms, locating the term that must be extended, clicking the pencil to edit, and changing the date for "Teachers can access from" from a date in the past to a date in the future?  Is there anything else that must be considered?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi @JonathanBarnes5,

It certainly may be as simple as changing the teacher can access until date in the term setup.  In additioon to changing the term setting, you may need to edit the close date of the final grading period depending on your setup and what exactly the teachers need to do.

I hope this info helps!
