Setting Participation Points in PointSolutions (TurningPoint)
This article is for instructors and covers details on how to set the participation points in Canvas. Results Manager allows you to manually assign participation points for new sessions as well as existing sessions associated with a course. For existing sessions, at least one polling question must be included in the session to assign participation points.
Setting Participation Points on New Sessions

By default, the session threshold is 50%. This value can be set between 0 and 100%. The values are automatically applied to the individual session.)
