Show Notes:
Tip #1: Access all Students/Submission for Google LTI 1.3
If a student has submitted an assignment, it will be on this page: https://assignments.google.com/ca
Can be used to grade and verify student submissions.
Tip #2: Grade posting practices
Automatic/Manual posting
You can set for the whole gradebook or specific assignments
Resource doc: https://guides.instructure.com/m/4152/l/1116617-how-do-i-select-a-grade-posting-policy-for-a-course-in-the-gradebook
Skyward Sync
Set the sync for what works for you, sync when you are ready.
Ashley recommends waiting until the majority of the grades are entered before syncing
Missing assignments
Update the grade status posting

Tip #3: Message students who function
Not only is this great for remediation, you can use this to message positivity and build connections
Resource doc: https://guides.instructure.com/m/4152/l/813641-how-do-i-send-a-message-to-students-from-the-gradebook
Tip #4: Grade total column and hide from students
Hide the total in Canvas to help with Skyward

Move the assignments and columns within the Gradebook to meet your needs

Could be Face to Face, virtual, items to connect about, etc.
