OTC developed the following instructions to aid you in submitting your grades. Please review this process prior to submitting grades.
- Once you have reviewed these instructions, log into OTC Central to submit your grades located under the faculty tab. You can also submit grades in Canvas by clicking on the ‘submit grades to Colleague’ tab and following those directions.
- If submitting through MyOTC, once you have provided your login and you have selected the faculty tab, the system will direct you to a list of your classes. Future semester courses will also appear in this location. Please select one class from the current semester area. It should resemble the following image.
If you have more than one class for the semester, you will repeat this process to enter grades for each section.
- Select the appropriate course from the list. After the course loads, you will see the list of student. You will need to select the “Grading” tab above the students names.
- Then click the “Midterm” or “Final Grading” tab depending on which you are wanting to submit.
- In MyOTC, you will need to enter each grade for each of your students.
- If a student currently shows as enrolled in the course but due to lack of attendance they should have been withdrawn, please contact Gavin O’Connor (oconnorg@otc.edu or 417-447-8241) before submitting the grades to get the student dropped from the course prior to final grade submission. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
- If a student dropped the course, you are required to enter a Last Date of Attendance (LDA).
- For Final Grade submission, after you enter and review final grades, click “Post Grades” in the upper, right-hand corner. Midterm grades do not require any submit process. Grades for midterms now load directly into the system.
- Instructors are no longer required to turn in final grade verification to division/location secretaries for end of semester documentation. So, please do not worry about obtaining that.
Please note the pull-down menu for selecting grades in the picture below.
If an F or I grade is submitted, a Last Date of Attendance (LDA) is required.
Please contact Gavin O’Connor if you have any questions on this process.
