How do I view my student's Learning Mastery scores in the Grades page as an observer?

Learning Mastery scores are used by your student's teacher to measure performance based on classroom standards, or outcomes. Outcome scores may be tied to assignments and other items throughout Canvas.

If your student's Grades page shows Assignments and Learning Mastery tabs on the Grades page, you can view standards-based scores in the Learning Mastery tab.
