Grade a Threaded Discussion

Grading should be enabled as you're installing the Threaded Discussion learning app, as grading can't be enabled after the tool has been installed.

To add a threaded discussion:

  1. Follow the instructions in the How To Install Learning Apps page, and follow the instructions on how to add the discussion as an Assignment.
  2. Once completed, click on the title of the threaded discussion to launch it.
  3. Click on Settings.

    • Check the box next to "Give a 100% grade for a student making a post or comment."
  4. Click on Save changes.

  5. As students add a thread or reply, a gradebook item will be created and their scores will appear automatically. Currently, students will only receive credit for replying to a thread, not creating a new thread.

If you would like to set advanced grading options, please see the Adjust Threaded Discussion Settings page.
