Overview


The Gradebook has many options for students to view their grades. In Canvas, students are able to view their current grades, total grades, what-if scores, instructor comments, and more. Here we have put together a quick start guide as for how to use and access all these options. 

The Grades page in a course displays all current grades for all course assignments.

Restrictions

Note: Not all instructors have the same Gradebook setup and therefore, some of these options may not apply to all courses.


Restrictions

Note: Some details in the Grades page, such as scoring details and the total grade, may be restricted in your course.
