Show Letter Grades in the Gradebook

 

Within the gradebook, instructors can choose to display grades to students based on points, percentages, color scheme, and letter grade. A letter grade is a traditional grade categories where a set amount of points are assigned to each grade symbol A, B, C, D, & F.
