Deleting and Reverting Grades

Overview

In a course, an Instructor may need to delete a grade or revert a grade back to its previous state, such as resetting a test to give a student who experienced technical problems another chance. The Instructor may accomplish these tasks through the Grade Center.

Deleting a Grade

Grades can be deleted from the Grade Center. Grades that have been deleted have the Override Grade and associated comments removed.

To delete a grade from the Grade Center, follow these steps:

1. Move the cursor over the grade to be deleted and click.
2. Press DELETE or BACKSPACE to remove the grade.
3. Press ENTER.
4. Click OK to null the Grade Value. Grades that are set to NULL display a dash ( - )

Note: Grades can also be set to null by typing the NULL character in the cell.

Note: If Enter is not pressed, and the user attempts to exit the entry cell or Grade Center, a dialog box will appear asking if the user would like to save the grade entry. If so, in the dialog box, select OK to save the grade.

Or, to delete a Grade through the Grade Details page, follow these steps:

1. In the Grade Center, move the cursor over the desired cell, and click the Action Link to view the contextual menu,
2. Select Grade Details.
3. In the Actions column, click Clear Attempt.
4. Click OK.

Grades that have been overridden can be reverted to clear a previously entered override, and then display the appropriate attempt grade if one exists. To revert a grade, follow these steps:

1. From any Grade Center View, move the cursor in the cell of the grade to be reverted and click the Action Link.
2. Click Grade Detailsto access the Grade Details page.
