[Academic] uploading grades to Myplace

[Aidan Arnold]

Hi Everyone,

Please just hit delete if you already know how to upload marks to Myplace.

In the Navigation bar on Myplace (on the left of the screen) for your 
class there is a link to 'Grades' so click that.

Under 'Administration' (bottom left of the screen) you will see a link 
that says 'Import', click that.

Do not click the obvious sub-menu import button (csv file), but instead 
click 'Strath Import' maybe this is part of our branding?

Make a csv file (it's e.g. an Excel export option) with two columns, 
left column student Registration number (with something like that as the 
header label), right column with grades (with the column label you want 
to appear as the grade label in Myplace). Attached is an example csv 
where I have used 'Reg #' and 'T2' (for Tutorial 2, but takes less 
column space in Myplace) as header labels, and replaced real student 
numbers with fake ones.

Drag and drop the csv file into the 'File' window, that appears under 
Strath Import on Myplace, but you don't need to change the other default 
settings.

Click 'upload grades'.

There are two sections now, "Identify user by" which by default will be 
the column one label e.g. 'Reg #', so leave that.

In the section "Grade item mappings" leave the left column label at the 
default option, and instead with the right column label, e.g. 'T2', use 
the pull-down menu to  change 'ignore item' to 'new grade item'.

Click 'upload grades' again, and that should be you sorted (with the 
caveat for e.g. the new assessment MCQ results that some students will 
enter their own student number wrong so it won't work until you correct 
the offending student numbers).

Best wishes and happy Myplacing,

Aidan
