Desire2Learn has a powerful gradebook where a professor can record and calculate student grades. Entries listed in the grades area can be linked to assignment collectors, quizzes and discussion topics within D2L so it’s easy to provide students feedback on work, while automatically entering their grade into the grades area. The professor can easily keep track of all student grades and a report is available on each student, which shows exactly how he/she is doing within the course.
The Center for Online Learning & Innovation maintains a set of helpful self-paced training videos on D2L’s grades area, as well as other tools and resources within D2L. COLI will be conducting an hour-long workshop focused on D2L’s grades area, taking place on Thursday, November 17, at 10:00 a.m., in Old Main 115. If you’ve used D2L’s grades area, but would like to know about more advanced features, this workshop is ideal. This session is equally helpful if you’ve never used D2L’s grades toolset before.
