How do I grade an assignment submission in the Teacher app on my iOS device?

In the Courses tab, tap the name of the course you'd like to view.

Tap the Assignments link.

Tap the name of the assignment.

Tap the Need Grading icon [1].

Note: If you want to filter submissions by a different status, tap the Arrow icon [2] and apply the filter in the Submissions page.

Locate the student's submission and tap the name of the student.

Tap the Grades tab.

To manually enter a grade, tap the Add icon.

You can also enter a grade using the grade slider. Tap and hold the slider handle [1] and drag it to the position that represents the desired grade. Grades will display above the handle [2].

To excuse the student from the assignment, drag and hold the icon at the right end of the scale. To remove the grade, drag and hold the icon at the left end of the scale.

If your assignment includes a rubric, you can use the rubric to help you score the student's submission.

To view the rubric short rating summary, tap and hold the rating number [1]. To view the long description, if any, tap the View long description link [2].

To view multiple criteria in the rubric, you can adjust the height of the grades window by tapping and holding the menu bar [3].

If the rubric is used for grading, you can automatically apply points to the submission grade.

To select rubric points, tap the rubric score [1]. Selected criteria will be highlighted.

To add a custom score not included in the criteria options, tap the Add icon [2]. You can add a manual grade for the criteria.

Notes:

• Once you have entered a score for a rubric, the rubric score cannot be removed.
• If your rubric is not set to be applied for grading, you can still tap the points for each rubric criterion, but you'll have to add the points manually and enter them in the grade field.
