Grading a Discussion or Assignment

---

To grade Assignments and Discussions in Canvas, you'll use the Canvas SpeedGrader. (Note: Only published assignments will be available for grading.) Once you're in the SpeedGrader, you'll be able to see assignment submissions by student. Whatever grade you enter into the SpeedGrader will automatically show up in the Gradebook as well. You can easily navigate from one student to another from the SpeedGrader as well. For detailed instructions, see below.
