[ARCHIVED] How do we switch all grades to Pass-Fail?

[humphreb]

We are looking to have all grades going forward (from March 20th until the end of the school year) in our district be pass-fail grades. Wondering if there is a way to do this for the whole district that uses Canvas.

 @humphreb ‌, I've shared your question with the Canvas Admins‌ group to get experts' eyes on it. https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-12612-421473686 should provide a good starting point.

Saw this:

As an admin, you can create grading schemes for all accounts associated

with your account.

Once a grading scheme is created for your account, instructors can link the

grading scheme to their courses. However, once a grading scheme has been

used to assess a student, you cannot edit the grading scheme.

Note: Any grading schemes you create in an account will also display within

sub-accounts.

Wondering - does this mean it will delete previous grades?

It will not delete grades. It more or less just translates the % into the final grade. Are you wanting to automatically set this new pass/fail grading schema for all courses this semester?

[heather_stockfo]

How would this work if a Pass/Fail option is provided to students?

Meaning not all students will choose a pass/fail option (as in this time of COVID-19)?

How would one go about choosing/offering a grading scheme where some students would be different than their peers?

At this time there can only be one grading schema per course.
