[ARCHIVED] Dropping Exam in final grade

[bcolli13]

I am wondering how to drop one exam grade from the student's total grade. I told them I would drop their lowest exam grade, but I cannot find where to do that. Ideas?

You need to create assignment groups, put the exams that are eligible for dropping into an assignment group, and then create a rule that tells Canvas to drop the lowest grade.

If you already have assignment groups, then go the Assignments page and 1) click on the options (three vertical dots) button and 2) then choose Edit.

Here are some lessons from the Canvas Instructor Guide that provide additional information.

• How do I create rules for an assignment group?  
• How do I add an assignment group in a course?
