Explanation of grade

Once the grading is complete, the course instructor will make the grading guidelines available on Canvas. Please review these guidelines before deciding whether to request an explanation for your grade.

The deadline for requesting an explanation is one week after the grade was announced.

If you are considering appealing the grade, we recommend requesting an explanation.

How to request an explanation

  • Log in to Studentweb.
  • From the drop-down menu "More", select "Explanations and appeals".
  • Click on the relevant course and press "Send" to request an explanation. The button disappears if the deadline for requesting an explanation has passed (one week after the announcement of the grade).

The explanation will be available in Inspera under "Archive" - course name - "See more details" within two to three weeks. You will also receive an email when it is ready.

Exceptions

Assignments that have an adjusting oral examination afterwards. The explanation is typically given in conjunction with the oral examination.

Exclusively multiple-choice exams. The point distribution will normally be posted on Canvas when the grading is ready.

Assignments submitted in Canvas. Request an explanation by sending an email directly to the course instructor/examiner.

Oral or practical exams. The request for an explanation must be made immediately to the course instructor/examiner after the grade is announced.
