Working together to enhance teaching & learning. If you need additional assistance, please reach out to the ID&D team.

Extra credit is currently not a default option in Canvas. However, you can give students extra credit using a variety of options. 

Create a New Assignment with Zero Point Value

  1. Create an assignment with zero points possible.

  2. After students complete an online submission or submit work offline, you can add and adjust points in the gradebook.

...

Note: For a zero-point assignment to factor into a student's grade, you must add a positive point value to at least one additional assignment in any assignment group.

Adding Extra Points for an Existing Assignment

  1. Add extra points to an assignment you've already created by manually entering them into the gradebook.

...

Note: The added points will increase the total points calculated for the final grade, students who complete extra credit may have an average over 100%.

Add Extra Points Using SpeedGrader

You can also manually add extra points by editing the grade shown in the Grade field in SpeedGrader.Image Removed

Create Extra Credit Within a Rubric

  1. Add an additional Criterion to a Rubric for extra credit.

  2. Make sure you make the rubric worth more than the assignment and you can give students extra points or not without affecting the actual assignment points.
