Set Up Extra Credit in Canvas

Extra Credit logo

Extra credit in Canvas can be confusing.  There isn't an obvious 'tool' or built-in setting in an assignment that walks you through implementing extra credit in a course. Sometimes extra credit means an extra points in an assignment category, sometimes it means extra points in the whole course, and sometimes it means extra percentages in the final course grade. What to do?

Use the new Extra Credit Self-Service Resource to figure how best to configure Canvas to meet your extra credit needs.
