When teachers edit or add grades
In most cases, assessment scores are recorded automatically when students complete course activities.
You may need to add or edit a grade when:
- A student experienced technical issues during an assessment.
- A score was recorded incorrectly.
- A score is missing and needs to be entered manually.
- An assessment score needs to be updated.
Where grade editing happens
Grade changes are made from a student's Grade Details page.
You can access Grade Details from:
- My Students
- My Classes
- Gradebook
Regardless of how you access the student record, grade edits are completed from the student's Grade Details page.

- Select the course you want to review.
- Select View Grades.
- Locate the assessment you want to update.
- Select the pencil icon in the actions column next to the score.

What happens after you add or edit a grade
