Push Grades from Examsoft to Canvas
Instructors do NOT have to create a grade column in Canvas prior to submitting grades, but they if there is a grade column already created, you'll have the option to push to that column or create a new one for the assignment.
4. Locate the assessment for which you wish to push the grades to LMS and click the 'Push to LMS' button
Step 5
Use the first box to select an existing Grade Column or the second box to create a new one. This name will be shown within your LMS grade-book.
Note: If you have a grade column created in Canvas but it doesn't populate in the drop down menu, your course needs to sync with Canvas. This occurs every 24 hours but can be manually done by your local Examsoft admin or by a Software Specialist.
Step 6
Select the Score type in the final box and select the 'Send Grades to LMS' button to push the scores for that assessment to Canvas with the specified Grade column.
