Copy and Paste Scores into GradeBook

You can add scores for one assignment or a group of assignments to your GradeBook. If you use the GradeBook's automatic calculations, instances might still arise when you need to add a grade to your GradeBook for a non-WebAssign assignment, such as an essay or a paper-based test.

To copy and paste scores for non-WebAssign assignments to your GradeBook:

  1. From the toolbar, click Grades > Add Scores to GradeBook.

    A page is displayed showing Assignment Info, which explains what the file needs to contain, and download and upload instructions.

  3. In Upload Method, select Copy and paste scores from a file on your computer and click Next.
    The Enter Assignment and Score Info page is displayed.
  4. Enter assignment and score information. You should include:
    • Assignment Name
    • Category
    • Description
    • Points
    • Due
    • Available
    • Student Names
    • Scores
    Important: Specify numeric scores for every student. Letter grades and missing scores are displayed as NA in WebAssign and are counted as 0 points.

    Your file might look similar to the following, which you can then copy and paste directly onto the Enter Assignment and Score Info page:
