D2L Question - "Use this Score" option?

Robert.W.778

In D2L, what is the "Use this Score" option mean? I see in the Dropbox, but am not sure what it means.

Thanks

Hi Robert

It sounds like you could be using Turnitin's Online Grading tool to evaluate assignment submissions. After using Online Grading, you have the option of sending the information from Turnitin to the grade book in Brightspace, by selecting the Use this Score option. This means the score/grade from Turnitin will be associated with a grade item in Brightspace and will form part of the student's final grade.

For more information, please see this article: https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/5987-setting-up-turnitin#configure-turnitin-to-update-grade-information-in-brightspace

Hopefully this answers your question.

Kind regards

Natasha
