Grading VoiceThread assignments
➢ When you create a VoiceThread assignment, a column will populate in your Canvas
gradebook.
➢ To review and grade VoiceThreads, click on the link or assignment instead of searching for
submissions in the gradebook. VoiceThread content is not accessible via Canvas gradebook or
Speedgrader. You will view and enter a grade for the assignment from the Assignment page,
not in Canvas gradebook or Speedgrader.
➢ When grading in the VoiceThread window, you will enter the grade based upon 0-100%, no
matter the grade display settings in Canvas.
