Gradebook

[VictoriaCampbel]

My class does not start until next week. The gradebook is showing all of the students' assignments as "Missing," which gives them all a 0% total before the course begins. How do I change this without having to go through each individual student and then each individual assignment.

Are the due dates for the assignments in the past? If you imported the assignments from a different course, you could have adjusted the dates during the import.

You can still bulk adjust the dates in the Assignments page: How do I bulk update due dates and availability da... - Instructure Community - 1195.

This is exactly what happened. I imported last quarter's class, so it was marking all of the assignments as missing because the due dates were in the past. Thanks for your response!

Hi @VictoriaCampbel,

Besides checking on (and changing) dates in the course - as mentioned by @Gabriel33 - I would recommend:

1. checking to see if you have a late policy configured
   1. please see the How do I apply a Late Submission policy in the Gradebook? - Instructure Community - 965  support article
   2. you can temporarily turn it off and then turn it back on
2. using the "Set Default Grade" option and leave the field empty (as mentioned in the How do I set a default grade for an assignment in the Gradebook? - Instructure Community - 747  support article) to set the grades back to nothing (you will need to do this for each gradable item)

I hope you have this all to be helpful.
