Resetting an Activity from the Student's Gradebook

Use this page to learn how to reset an activity from the student's individual gradebook. 

 Permission

To follow the steps listed below, you will need to have "Reset Assignments" checked under Gradebook Options. To validate your permissions, click here.

 Note

When an activity is reset, the first score is removed and the second attempt's grade will count no matter if it was lower than the first attempt. Resetting an activity does not remove the first attempt.

With an assessment, the highest score earned will count as long as the highest score was not reset. If it was, then that score is out of contention.

For activities that do not have a grade assigned yet, such as a performance task, the system will place a placeholder grade once the activity is reset. Do not be alarmed about what the number is that populates for the placeholder grade, as it is simply a placeholder. The score is not counted towards the grade, as is true of any other scores showing up under the "Other Attempts" section. It also doesn't show for students since resetting an activity forces them to complete it again from the beginning.
