Manually Entering Grades

​Overview

If you would like to enter grades for an assignment for all students in a single screen, this can be done using the Grades tool. This is most often used when an assignment has been graded outside of the D2L Brightspace environment, such as class participation, but has an associated grade item in a D2L Brightspace grade book.
