You can change the grade for a student’s speech assignment by updating the rubric or adjusting the points awarded, depending on your course settings.

Students will receive a notification in their webtext when you post a new grade. For more information, visit our article: How do students view their grades for speech assignments?

You can find video assignments by either navigating to the webtext page that contains the assignment or by selecting the page from Analytics.

Tip: If you’d like to know exactly which pages contain speech assignments, use the Index of Speech Assignments page at the end of the webtext’s Table of Contents.
