Gradebook Scheduled Feedback

In the Gradebook, instructors can manage the visibility of grades and feedback for individual assignments. By default, scores and comments are released together, but instructors can schedule them to release separately. This feature gives instructors greater flexibility and control over feedback timing, allowing them to align the release of rubric scores and comments with grading workflows, review sessions, or instructional pacing. It helps ensure students receive feedback when it is most meaningful and actionable.

Notes:

• When the release schedules are separated, comments must be released prior to grades.
• Preserving scheduled feedback release dates during course copy/import is not currently supported.
• If an instructor manually releases grades before the scheduled release time, the manual release takes precedence and the scheduled release is canceled.
