Sync grades

Updated 03 Nov 2023

After students get started, sync the overall score or grades for published assignments for all students. This happens one-way from Revel to your LMS course. (Grade sync doesn't apply to eText.)

To prepare for grade sync, open Revel from your LMS course and choose sync settings. Then return to your LMS course and choose sync settings from the Pearson Home page.

Manual sync

Manually sync all overall scores or existing grades anytime using Sync now. We recommend you do a manual sync to make your LMS gradebook current or when you're creating grade reports. A manual sync may resolve grade sync issues after deleting assignments from your LMS course or switching the sync type between overall score and assignments.

You can do a manual sync after you select a sync type and, if applicable, specific assignments to sync. A manual sync usually takes around 5 to 15 minutes. After the confirmation message, updates are immediately available in your LMS gradebook. Any edits you make to Revel grades and column names in the LMS gradebook might be overwritten to match grades from Revel. To fix this, make your changes to the Revel gradebook and then do a manual sync.
