Beth has a resource, "It's not a perfect video - watch it on high-speed until you get to the parts you don't already know - but this video includes the steps for:1. Changing individual scores to "missing" (or excused or late) for assignments that have gone by.2. Changing everyone's scores to "missing" for when they come and go in the future.3. Changing your class settings so that you and students will see their letter grade in addition to the percentage.There are likely many other (and likely better) ways of doing things in the grade book, so feel free to share out with everyone if you've discovered better, more efficient ways of doing any of these things!Suzann Keith has a video about how to correct a grading glitch in Canvas.The video shows this and how to fix it relatively quickly.SeeSaw
