An
instructor can provide an implicit reason why a student does not have a score
for a grade item by utilizing grade exemptions. A blank grade or a zero (0)
grade can mean that the student has not submitted or attempted the assessment,
the assessment has not been graded by the professor, or that the student has
failed the assessment entirely. Utilizing an exemption setting supports
differentiation for a legitimate exemption. This tutorial demonstrates how to
create multiple grade exemptions for a single student in MyFIRE.
1. Access
the desired course.
2. Select grades in the navigation bar.
3. Then

drop-down menu will appear. Select enter grades.

down the page and select the checkbox to the left of the students’ names
who should receive an exempt for the specified grade item.
8. Select exempt above the table. Once selected, the exemption(s) will be noted in
the scheme column.
9. Then
select save and close at the bottom of page.
