When submitting grades for large classes, instructors can utilize the Grade Formatting tool in the U-M Course Manager to prepare a file that can be uploaded to Wolverine Access at the end of the semester.
Enable the Course Grade Scheme
In preparation for uploading to Wolverine Access, student's grades will need to have a Letter grade associated with them. Canvas can apply the letter grade when you enable the Course Grade Scheme from your course 'Settings' menu.
