Teachers can grade assignments using a numerical or custom scale, or an advanced grading method such as a rubric. Final grades are recorded in the gradebook.
When reviewing assignments, provide feedback. Leave feedback comments, upload files such as marked-up student submissions, or spoken audio feedback.
