Grading
We are closing in on the end of the semester. If you have a grading scheme enabled in your course site, Canvas will automatically calculate letter grades.
You can easily load your grades into SIS from Canvas. Click on the “IU Grading Tools” menu in the Canvas Grades tool and select SIS Grade Roster, or simply navigate to the SIS Faculty Center and click “Grade Roster.” You will then see a “Load Grades from Canvas” button.
We recommend that you carefully check grades in Canvas first–check out this Knowledge Base document for steps. You also have the option to enter grades through the Faculty Center into your class roster using these steps.
If you haven’t yet used grading schemes, learn about grading schemes for next semester:
Learn more about how to check your assignments, gradebook, and grading scheme in the “Wrapping up the Semester” portion of the Canvas Semester Checklist.
Assessment of Student Learning
Once your course is complete, review assessment data to see how well students attained course learning outcomes and reflect on how to improve learning where needed. Assessment involves identifying patterns of student learning and using that information to improve instruction.
Check out these instructional guides for developing and adapting your assessments of student learning:
It’s not too late to arrange a peer evaluation of teaching. Choose a colleague from your department and swap by visiting their classes and having them visit yours.
