Q: What are the FERPA guidelines for distributing grades to students?
A: Grades should be communicated to students securely so that students are not able to see each others’ grades, for assignments or final grades. Communicating grades using Moodle or Canvas provides a secure method. Students can view their final grades that have been posted by using MyU > Academics tab. Posting grades publicly cannot be done in a way that might identify the student. They should not be posted by student ID number or social security number (full or partial), date of birth, or other identifiers. Additionally, if graded assignments are left for student pick up in an office or other setting, students should only be able to gain access to their own graded material.
