UITS no longer supports original Oncourse. For information about Indiana University's current version of Oncourse, see ARCHIVED: What is Oncourse?
Note: This information is valid only for original Oncourse. If you are using Oncourse CL, please see ARCHIVED: Using Oncourse CL Official Final Grades, how do I submit final grades?
You (as faculty of record or proxy) may submit final grades through Oncourse. Below is the general procedure for doing this:
- To find the final grades gradebook, under the tab of your course or master course, click . In the "Gradebook List", click .
- If you have kept grades on paper or outside of Oncourse, you may
simply want to enter them manually as letter grades into the "Grade
Input" field. Otherwise, you may import grades from an Oncourse
gradebook. To do so:
- In the first drop-down menu under "Import Final Grades:", select the gradebook.
- In the second drop-down menu, select the assignment field within that gradebook to use as the final grade.
- Click .
Note: The Oncourse final grades gradebook will allow you to import numeric grades; however, you cannot submit numeric grades. You can either change the numeric values manually after you import them, or you can create a final letter grade field within an Oncourse gradebook before importing the grades to the final grades gradebook.
- All grades to be submitted must be letter grades (e.g.,
A
,A-
,B+
). If you give a grade ofFN
("Failing/Nonattendance"), then you must type a date of last attendance into the designated field. Other valid letter grades areFNN
("Failing/Nonattendance", never attended class),I
("Incomplete"), andR
("Deferred"). A grade ofS
("Satisfactory") may be used for courses designated for S/F grading in the Schedule of Classes.Grades of "W" ("Withdrawn"), "NC" ("No Credit"), and "ZZ" ("Administrative Placeholder Grade") are entered automatically; you cannot edit them.
- If there is an entry for a student in the "Requirement
Designation Option" field, then you must make a selection in the
"Requirement Designation Grade" field for that student. The
"Designation" field describes the basis of the requirement.
"Undergrad", "Graduate", "Medicine", "Law", "Dentistry", and "Optometry" are the possible "Short Description" field values. There is no identifying field for Purdue students.
- To save a final grades gradebook in process, at the bottom of the
screen, click
Note: After submitting your grades, you must contact the registrar directly to make any changes.
. When you are sure that you have given a
letter grade to each student and are ready to submit your grades,
click the button. You must then click to confirm, or to
abort.
- After confirming, you will see a confirmation number and date/time stamp at the top of the screen. You may also export a copy of the submitted grades as an Excel spreadsheet by clicking the button.
Note: Once you have submitted your final grades, you will not see them listed in the final grades gradebook until after you log out and log back into Oncourse. You will know that you have submitted your grades correctly if you are unable to enter grades after you've logged back in.
