The Multi-Post Grades tool allows teachers to post grades for multiple tasks or standards at the same time. Grades are sourced from the In-Progress grades area of the Grade Book. This tool can save time for teachers who have to post grades often (such as to a weekly Progress task) or who have to post grades to many tasks or standards.

Use the Multi-Post Grades tool to post grades to multiple tasks/standards en masse.

Access the Multi-Post Grades tool from the Settings menu of the Grade Book, from the Post Grades tool, or from the Progress Monitor

Because the Multi-Post Grades tool pulls in-progress grades and proficiency estimates from the Grade Book, the Grade Calculation Options for each section must be set up. Additionally, tasks and standards must be added to a course to be used in the posting process.

Step 1 - Select Source and Destination

The first step of posting grades en masse is selecting which source sections/tasks are posting to which destination tasks. The scenario shown in the images below is of a teacher posting a Progress grade for her sections from the Term Grade task.

Step 1: Selecting Destination and Source

  1. Indicate if grades being posted should Overwrite Existing Grades that have already been posted.
  2. Filter the list of destination sections and tasks by Term, Section, and Task/Standard. Multiple sections and tasks can be selected. The table below is filtered based on these selections and shows the sections and tasks/standards that grades will be posted TO. The grading window must be open for at least one task in the section for it to display.
  3. Indicate where grades should be posted FROM by selecting the Term and Task/Standard that serve as the source of the posted grade. Click the Edit button at the right of each row to edit.
  4. The destination sections listed in the Post to column depends on the Filter by Task/Standards selected above the table.
  5. Click Next to review comments.

Step 2 - Comments

Step 2 is optional. If desired, enter report card comments. Click Next when finished or Skip to move to step 3.

Step 2: Entered report card comments by section or individually.

If any of the selected sections have unreleased scores, a message displays at the top indicating that In-Progress grades may be incomplete. See the Release Scores article for more information. 

In-Progress grades/Proficiency Estimates are calculated using only released scores.

To release all scores prior to posting, visit the Curriculum List, filter to only Unreleased assignments, and click Release All Scores.
