Overview
Anonymous grading allows you to hide your students’ names as you grade their assignment or assessment submissions. These names remain invisible until you post their scores.
Note that you must enable anonymous grading before students have submitted their work. Your students will be made aware that anonymous grading has been enabled and discouraged from including personal information in their submissions.
Additionally, you may still bulk download student submissions. The files will be named after their individual submission receipt codes.
To add exceptions and exemptions, use the students tab of the Gradebook.
Note: The following settings do not work with anonymous grading:
- Class Conversations
- Collect submissions offline
- Assign to groups
- Automatically post grades
Watch: Grading Options video
Procedure
Create an assignment or assessment and enter the settings area via the gear icon in the upper right corner.
Scroll down to the “Grading and Submissions” category and check the “Hide Student Names” option. Save your work once you are finished.
The Anonymous Grading View
