Manually Syncing YuJa Quiz grades with the Gradebook
By default, grades should automatically sync between YuJa and the Brightspace gradebook, but some instructors may prefer to make sure they have the most up-to-date grades by forcing a manual sync. This can be done from the instructor’s YuJa account.
Access your YuJa account by selecting Course Tools on the course navbar, then selecting YuJa Video at the bottom of the drop-down menu. A new tab will open with the instructor’s personal YuJa Media Library.
In the top-right of the site, select the waffle icon > Usage & Analytics.
Navigate to the left side of the Usage & Analytics area, and select Grade Book at the bottom of the toolbar.
Select the course, then the quiz that needs to be synced. Select Get Result.
Select the Sync Gradebook button > On-Demand LMS Quiz Gradebook Sync. This will sync all of the quiz grades with the Brightspace gradebook.
If the instructor wishes to just sync one student’s mark, they can do so by clicking the checkbox next to the student’s name then selecting the Sync Gradebook button > On-Demand LMS Student Gradebook Sync.
