[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers, is it standard practice, or maybe easier for you in the long run, to pre-grade quizzes and test and then go back and adjust the scores?

I receive canvas notifications and for a couple of classes I consistently get notifications of a 0/(whatever the total will be). And either the next day or later in the day have an updated grade.

My question is purely out of curiosity. I will admit that the first zeros I saw I was not happy with my kids but then I noticed that the grades always changed. [/quote]

As a parent, I've had a problem like this over the years.  At first, I would accuse the kids and it would sometimes create a pretty stressful situation (particularly for one kid who has a tendency not to turn in homework, so it was not at all helpful to have inaccurate data).

But it's sometimes worse than you think.  Some teachers have Canvas pre-grade multiple choice questions and hand grade short answer questions.  And we get a notice on the intermediate grade that makes it look like the kid failed the test.  In other words, we get a score of 6/11 (because canvas assumes 0 on the short answer questions) and it is ultimately updated to 11/11 once short answers are graded.[/quote]

Op here and I get these too and I also created a “stressful situation“, i’m not proud of myself for that.[/quote]
