While Canvas automatically records grades for online submissions, there are times when you may need to enter or adjust a grade by hand, such as participation, in-class work, or graded items submitted on paper. Canvas Gradebook makes it easy to type in or update any grade directly from one central view.
- In course navigation, click Grades.
- Look for the student’s name and assignment you want to enter a grade.
- Enter the grade, based on the Grade Settings (e.g. points, letter grade, percentage, etc.)

- If you need to edit an existing grade, it’s the same steps as above. You’d just find the student and enter in the new grade.
