Review Student Assessment Policies
Ensure you are familiar with McGill's Policy on the Assessment of Student Learning (PASL).
The School of Continuing Studies does not have a final class grade averaging policy. Please grade student work based on demonstrated achievement of specified learning outcomes for each assignment.

Submit a Mark Breakdown to Instructor Services
Once the grades have been entered in Minerva, you must then submit a Mark Breakdown Spreadsheet to SCS Instructor Services at instructors.conted [at] mcgill.ca.
Use the SCS Gradebook template (or your own Excel spreadsheet as long as it complies with all the requirements necessary for grade submission).
The Mark Breakdown in an Excel spreadsheet will allow Instructor Services to:
- Validate the grades entered in Minerva and make corrections in case of a discrepancy
- Assign a letter instead of a numerical format where appropriate (e.g., J, NA)
- Avoid rolling blank grades
