Upload All Grades

• You can grade all student submissions for an assignment outside of CLEW and then upload them all at once.
• Click Grade beneath the assignment’s title.
• Select Upload All action.

Upload and Release Issues

• When you select the option to release grades/feedback to students upon completion of the upload, you must make sure that you select to upload All, or at least make sure to select Grade File.
• CLEW seems to take issue with ungraded assignment types and the Release All function. If you place a grade inside the grades.csv file for each student and select release after the upload it will trick CLEW into releasing your feedback to the students.

Note: When zipping your upload archive, make sure that the grades.csv folder is in the root or top-level of the archive. (This means that when you open the archive you should see grades.csv without browsing any further.
