UNF Grade Transfer Tool

• Transfers final grades for the entire enrollment with one click.
• Works with cross-listed courses.
• Allows instructors to transfer student grades from Canvas more than once. (The most recent transfer is what will remain in myWings.)
• Allows instructors to submit the last day of attendance for grades of F or I.
• Allows for customized percentage scales within course grading schemes. 

Note: Letter grades within customized grading schemes must correspond with letter grades that are accepted by Banner (A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, D, F, X, P).

Please be aware of the following before accessing the UNF Grade Transfer Tool:

The Grade Transfer Tool may be a little slow the first time it is launched after logging into Canvas. Please give it a few minutes to load before reporting to CIRT.

Instructors must enable and select a grade scheme in the Canvas course settings.

• The Default Canvas grading scheme includes incompatible letter grades and cannot be used; the Banner Letter scheme or a customized grading scheme must be selected.
• Instructors may create a customized grading scheme, as long as letter grades within the customized grading scheme correspond with letter grades that are accepted by Banner (A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, D, F, X, P).

Note: Letter grades of A+ and C- will not be accepted by Banner and must not be included in customized grading schemes.

It is the students’ current scores that are transferred from Canvas to myWings. Ensure the grades shown in the Total column in the Canvas gradebook accurately reflect the students’ final scores by reviewing the following:

• Fill in any missing grades with zeroes. (The default grade function can be used to fill in missing grades for multiple students on an assignment.)
• If assignment group weights are being used, ensure assignment groups are weighted correctly.

Only the instructor listed as the Primary Instructor on the course schedule can transfer the grades of a given section.

• This means that instructors will not be able to transfer grades for any student added to the course who is not officially enrolled in that specific section. Please check the roster in Banner r Self-Service to ensure that all Canvas students are officially enrolled.
• Other instructors not listed as the primary instructor on the course schedule and TAs will not be able to use the Grade Transfer Tool.

Before submitting grades for transfer, instructors can review the student grade information for accuracy and make adjustments as necessary.

(A) Checkboxes: Select the box next to the names of the students whose grades are being transferred. To select all, click the box at the top of the column. 

(B) Canvas Score/Canvas Grade: Canvas scores and grades represent the Total Score from the Canvas gradebook and correlate with the grading scheme that has been set for the course.

(C) Override Grade: Instructors have the ability to override the grade from the Canvas gradebook if necessary by selecting the appropriate grade for an individual student from the dropdown menu.

(D) Last Attend Date: A Last Attend Date must be entered in the Grade Transfer Tool for students with a grade of F or I.

Note: Once grades are transferred to the Final Grade Worksheet in MyWings, the Attend Hours must be entered there. (Refer to the next section “Submitting Grades in MyWings” for additional information.)

(E) Submit Grades: Select the checkbox above the Submit Grades button to acknowledge the statement, then click the Submit Grades button to begin the transfer. Transfer progress can be tracked in the Status column of the student table. After the transfer is complete, instructors must log into MyWings to verify the transferred grades on the Final Grade Worksheet, and submit. (Refer to the next section “Submitting Grades in MyWings” for additional information.)

Access the Final Grade Worksheet in Faculty Self-Service to confirm the grade transfer.

1. Login to myWings at http://mywings.unf.edu.
2. Select the Faculty & Advisors Menu.
3. Click the Final Grades menu option.
4. Select the Term and CRN for the course where grades are being submitted.

The grades transferred from Canvas will appear on the Final Grade Worksheet as pre-populated information. Please see the example below.

For students who earn a grade of F or I, the Last Attend Date and Attend Hours must be entered (see students 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8 as an example below). Please note that a missing date will cause the entire entry to be rejected. Grades transferred using the Grade Transfer Tool in Canvas will have a Last Attend Date pre-populated, but Attend Hours must be entered before the worksheet can be submitted.

• Instructors can use the date of the last test or assignment submitted by the student if they do not regularly record class attendance.
• If the student did not attend the first day of class, please use that date as the Last Attend Date and list the Attend Hours as 0.
• If the student attended only the first day of class, please use that date as the Last Attend Date and list the Attend Hours as 1.
• Students who have withdrawn from a course will appear as Not Gradable.
• Students who registered in audit grading mode should receive a grade of X.

Once the appropriate entries have been made on the Final Grade Worksheet, click Submit. A status message should appear at the top of the worksheet page to confirm submission.
