How do I publish final grades for a moderated assignment?
A moderated assignment supports up to two provisional grades and one moderator grade. However, provisional grades are not included in the Gradebook and are only visible to moderators. Students cannot view any comments or grades until the grade is posted. You can either select grades directly in the Moderate page or you can select grades when reviewing the moderated assignment submission and comments.
Note: Once a grade is published, the grade in the Moderate page cannot be changed; all content is considered read-only for historical reference. However, grades can still be changed in the Gradebook.
Open Moderate Page

Click the Moderate button.
Note: Your assignment must be published before you can add students to the moderation set.
Confirm Final Grades

Confirm all students have received a grade by a grader.
If a student does not yet have a final grade, you can apply a grade by accepting grades for a grader or using the Final Grade drop-down menu to assign a grade.
Select Final Grades

To select a final grade for each student, click the Final Grade drop-down menu and select the grader's name [1].
To select all the grades as final grades, click the Accept button [2]. Once selected, the Grade Summary page confirms the grades have been accepted.
Notes:
- If the Accept button is grayed out, or if the assignment does not display the Accept button at all, one or more submissions have been graded by multiple graders and includes grading conflicts that you must resolve manually.
- Accepting grades for a grader cannot be undone. However, you can change a final grade assigned to a student by assigning a custom grade, if needed.
- Any annotations and rubrics that were not selected become inaccessible once the grade is released.
Set Custom Grade

To give a student a custom grade, select the text in the drop-down menu and type the custom grade. Press the Enter or Return key on your keyboard to save the custom grade.
