By default, D2L does not automatically display final grades to students; they only see their scores on individual assignments, not their cumulative grade for the course. At the end of the term, instructors can opt to release the final grade so that students can view it.
Note: These instructions are for grade books set up for a Final Calculated Grade. If the grade book is set to release Final Adjusted Grade, see the
guide from D2L for the additional step to release this grade. See
Setting up Grades for more information on these settings.
- Go to Grades.
- Select the
dropdown arrow next to the Final Calculated Grade column title.
- Select Enter Grades.
- Select the
dropdown arrow [A] next to the Final Grades page heading.
- Select Release All [B].
- Select
Yes.
- Select
Save and Close.
Note: Final grades calculated or entered in D2L are not official. Instructors must enter final grades in Campus Connect for grades to appear in official DePaul student records. See
Submitting Final Grades for more information.
NEXT STEPS
After releasing final grades in the course, instructors might want to email students to let them know that their scores are available. View Emailing Students via the Classlist for more information.
