How do I view Grades in the Dashboard?

You can view overall course grades in the Dashboard. This button is available to all user roles and displays grades for both courses being taken and courses being taught, if any.

 

Note: When multiple grading periods are enabled for a course, you may not be able to view the total grade for all grading periods at once.
