This page explains how to post grades in Ultra courses.

Overview:

• Grades must to be “Posted” for students to see their scores and feedback.

• Grades cannot be Posted unless there is a score.

• Grades can be Posted for an individual student or for all graded attempts.

• After grades have been Posted, they cannot be unposted.

• Assignments and Tests have a “Post grades Automatically” setting which can be enabled/disabled.

  • If enabled, grades are “Posted” as soon as a grade has been input.

• Grades that have been posted will indicate the “Posted” status in the Gradebook - Grades tab.

The Posted grade visibility rule also applies to calculated columns and the Overall Grade. If a component of a calculation is not “Posted”, students will only see the calculation based on what is Posted. Instructors though will see the calculated grade regardless of Posting status.

• For example:

  • Column A is a Test and a student has a Posted score of 90/100.

  • Column B is Extra credit and the student has 5pts.

  • Column C is a Calculated column, totaling A+B.

    • For the instructor, Column C will show 95/100.

    • For the student, if Column B is not Posted, Column C will show 90/100.

      • If Column B is Posted, Column C will show 95/100.

Posting Grades from the Gradebook

From the Gradebook - Grades tab, grades can be posted from their assessment columns. Each column will display the number of grades which have been input, and the number which have been posted.

Auto Posting Grades

Assignments and Tests have an setting which allows instructors to “Post assessment grades automatically”. If enabled, the “Posting” step will be removed and any input grades/feedback will be visible to students immediately.

• This setting can be accessed from an individual assessment’s settings.
  
  

• Assignments: This setting is disabled by default.

• Tests: This setting is enabled by default. Tests that have autograded questions (ie MC, TF, etc) will be graded and posted automatically.
