Quick Tip: Gradebook Colors in Canvas

POSTED: Oct. 19, 2022


The gradebook looks like the fall trees, but there is purpose to that beauty. This week we are going to look at what those colors mean in the Canvas Gradebook.

  • Icons and Colors
    The gradebook contains more information than simple points and letter grades. Learning to read the gradebook icons and colors can benefit both you and your students. The gradebook icons and colors you see may vary from course to course based on your particular assignments and settings, so this is a good page to bookmark.
     
  • Turnitin Report
    It is important to know how to interpret the Turnitin gradebook icons. These marks will only appear in the gradebook if you have enabled “Plagiarism Review” within the assignment settings.
