The ‘grading scheme’ in Canvas is used to translate numeric grades into letter grades. The default scheme is not good for most Rutgers–Camden courses: it includes minus grades, for instance. Unfortunately, we haven’t yet been able to change this default.
Instructors can set up a grading scheme for each Canvas site:
- From within your Canvas course site, click Settings from the bottom of your left-hand course menu
- Select the first tab at the top, for Course Details
- About halfway down the Details page, after the Start/End date area, find the Grading Scheme option and check the box to Enable course grading scheme
- After checking the box, a new link will appear; click on set grading scheme
- Now click on the pencil to edit the existing grading scheme
- asdf In the View/Edit Grading Scheme window, start from the top and:
- to edit the range, change the lower limit (eg, change A to be 100% to 90%)
- to delete a grade (eg, remove A-), click the đť—« at its far right
- continue until scheme is complete, then click the Save button at the bottom right
