Gradebook - need automatic way to reduce final grade by X points for unexcused absences
We need a way to automatically reduce students' final grades for unexcused absences.
The roll call tool doesn't allow for grade deductions and is based on a percentage vs straight deduction point/s.
We tried a workaround that adjusted the final grade automatically, but it was confusing to students and instructors, alike. So, now we're adding a notes column in the gradebook where absences are recorded (so students can see this) and then manually reducing the final grade outside of Canvas.
Please add a way to automatically adjust the final grade (by point/s) that also provides documentation within Canvas (that students can also see).
