Provisional Mark
This article will explain how the provisional mark column functions in Canvas.
The provisional mark appears in all new Canvas courses during rollover. It is an automatically created assignment that requires no submission by the students and is unpublished.
Marks can be added to this column like all other assignments in Canvas (manually in the gradebook or by spreadsheet upload).
When the column is populated and you wish students to view their mark, be sure to post grades for the assignment to allow students to see them.
