[Gradebook Settings] "Grade Release Date" Option in Assignment Settings

[claire_obrien]

Since the changes to the gradebook last year, it would be really beneficial to have an additional option when setting up assignment regarding overriding the grade posting policy. 

Can we please have an additional button in the "Assign" section so that, regardless of whether the anonymous settings are enabled or not, staff can enter the date that grades will be posted. At the moment our lecturers need to set up assignments two different ways (depending on whether assignments are anonymous or not) to stop grades from being released early to students.

Please add a feature that allows teachers to schedule when the scores for graded assignments will be posted for students. 

It contributes to a harried experience for students when they receive notifications about their grades at random times depending on when I complete grading their assignments and posting their scores (when the grade posting policy is set to "Manual"). I would prefer to be able to set a regular time each week when grades will post so that students will know when to expect it (and so that they won't be distracted with notifications at other times). Ideally, the feature would allow me to schedule grade posting for specific assignments or for the grade book as a whole.

This is a much-needed feature. Please consider it!

Yes, that would be definitly the best way! We also check the grades twice to make sure all grades are correct. And we have to wait for internal approval. If students see it immediately and anything changes later, we have a lot of discussions with them.
We have to set this function to "post grades manually" for EACH course.

I fully support this idea! I was delighted for having a "due date" and an "available until" date. I was looking for a "Grade Release Date" for our grade-relevant quizzes since starting with using this learning platform. I'd be so happy to find it as soon as possible!

I love the idea and in addition to being able to set a specified date in the assignment settings I would also love a more course wide mode or Assignment specific where in addition to Automatic and Manual there is a Schedule option.  With this option you could specify how many days after the Due Date or Ends date the grades will automatically post.  This will make course management much easier for instructors.

this sounds like something that would be extremely useful, please do implement it soon

Problem statement:

To protect the students' mental health and wellness and the learning environment, we have a K12 school policy for grades to be published/released outside of school hours. This is additional work for our teachers to do this because they have to remember to do this after hours, when they may be helping a student or coaching after school.

Proposed solution:

Since we are not supposed to post grades during the school day, maybe we could do a "schedule release" like we do with emails. Wouldn't it be great if we had a tab that we could use to schedule those grades and comments for after the school day?
