Google Classroom has become an essential tool for remote and in-person learning, allowing teachers and students to seamlessly collaborate, share resources, and submit assignments online. One of the key features of this platform is the ability for students to check their grades and track their progress in each class. In this article, we’ll explore how students can access their grades on Google Classroom, both on desktop and mobile devices.

Accessing Grades on Desktop

To view your grades on a computer, simply follow these steps:

  1. Open your web browser and go to classroom.google.com.
  2. Sign in with your school-provided Google account credentials.
  3. On the main dashboard, you’ll see a list of all your classes represented as class cards.
  4. Click on the class you want to check your grades for.

Once inside the class, you have three main options to view your grades:

Classwork Page

  1. Click on the “Classwork” tab at the top of the page.
  2. In the top-right corner, click on the “View your work” icon (it looks like a clipboard).
  3. This will display a list of all your assignments, along with their due dates, submission status, and grades (if the teacher has graded them).

People Page

  1. Click on the “People” tab at the top of the page.
  2. Find your name in the list of students.
  3. Your overall grade for the class will be displayed next to your name (if the teacher has chosen to share overall grades).

Stream Page

  1. Click on the “Stream” tab at the top of the page.
  2. Scroll down to the “View your work” section.
  3. Here, you’ll see a summary of your recent work, including grades for any recently graded assignments.

Understanding Grade Visibility

It’s important to note that teachers have control over whether or not they share overall grades with students in a particular class. If you don’t see an overall grade displayed, it likely means that your teacher has chosen not to share this information on Google Classroom.

In such cases, you can always reach out to your teacher directly to inquire about your current grade and progress in the class. They may provide this information through other means, such as during class discussions or individual meetings.

FAQ

H3: What if I don’t see any grades for an assignment?

If you don’t see a grade for a particular assignment, it likely means that your teacher hasn’t graded it yet. Be patient, and the grade should appear once your teacher has had a chance to review and grade the assignment.

H3: Can I see grades for past assignments or just current ones?

Google Classroom allows you to view grades for both current and past assignments. As long as your teacher has graded and returned the work, you should be able to see the grade in your Classwork or Stream sections.

H3: What do the different colors mean for assignments?

Google Classroom uses color coding to help you quickly identify the status of your assignments:

  • Red: Missing work (assignment not submitted)
  • Green: Turned in work or draft grade
  • Black: Returned work (graded by the teacher)

H3: Can I see feedback from my teacher along with my grade?

Yes, in many cases, your teacher may provide written feedback or comments along with your grade. This feedback can be accessed by clicking on the specific assignment in your Classwork or Stream sections.

H3: What if I think there’s a mistake in my grade?

If you believe there has been a mistake in the grading of one of your assignments, it’s best to reach out to your teacher directly. Explain your concerns politely and provide any relevant evidence or justification for why you think the grade should be reviewed.

By understanding how to check your grades on Google Classroom, you can stay on top of your academic progress and ensure that you’re meeting the expectations of each class. Remember, communication with your teachers is key if you have any questions or concerns about your grades or assignments.
