Can I grade using checkmarks in Canvas?
Answer
You can use checkmarks to grade in Canvas by creating a checkmark grading scheme.
- Log in to Canvas.
- Navigate to any content block with a Rich Content Editor (page, discussion, assignment, etc.).
- Click "Edit."
- Next to "Display Grade As," click the down arrow and choose "Letter Grade."
- Click "Manage All Grading Schemes."
- Click "+ Add grading scheme."
- Enter a Grading Scheme Name, such as "Checkmarks."
- Change percentage to points and replace the letters with checkmarks.
- Change the range to relevant point values.
- Ex: check plus = 5 to 4 points
- Repeat this process for as many check options as you want.
- Check plus
- Check
- Check minus
- Click "Save" and return to the assignment settings.
- Ensure "Checkmarks" (or whatever you named the grading scheme) appears under "Display Grade as" and "Letter Grade."
