term by the Records Office and examination papers are to be identified by pseudonym or by student number. Instructors may receive grades of the students in their classes by name after the marks meeting. Such information is to be kept confidential. No changes may be made to student grades after the submission of grades without the approval of the Associate Dean.</p><p>Papers in seminars may be submitted by pseudonym, at the option of the student, although in many cases, the identity of the student may be known to the instructor as a result of prior discussions between student and instructor concerning the paper. In courses with classroom participation as a component of the grade, the anonymous grading rules do not apply.</p><p>Graduate students do not use pseudonymns.</p><h2>First Year Grading</h2><p>First year Small Group Writing Assignments may be graded anonymously through the use of pseudonyms created for each assignment, but an instructor also may wish to have prior discussions with a student about the assignments, in which case the identity of the student may be known to the instructor. As in the past, class lists, used for grading, will be provided to Professors under Pseudonyms/pseudonumbers.</p></div></div></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="sidebar-first" class="column sidebar"> <div class="region region-sidebar-first"> <div id="block-menu-block-3" class="block block-menu-block clearfix"> <h2>Guidelines and Procedures</h2> <div class="content"> <div class="menu-block-wrapper menu-block-3 menu-name-main-menu parent-mlid-0 menu-level-2"> <ul class="menu"><li class="first leaf menu-mlid-691"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/jd-academic-accommodations-and-considerations-policy">Academic Accommodations and Considerations</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-597"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/academic-counselling-accommodations">Academic Counselling & Registration</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-598"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/access-student-academic-records">Access to Student Academic Records</a></li> <li class="leaf active-trail active menu-mlid-604"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/anonymous-grading-examinations-and-written-work" class="active-trail active">Anonymous Grading of Examinations and Written Work</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-599"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/jd-appeals">JD Appeals</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-600"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/attendance">Attendance</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-937"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/lecture-recording-policy">Lecture Recording Policy</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-607"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/cancellation-and-rescheduling-classes">Cancellation and Rescheduling of Classes</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-601"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/examinations-guidelines-accommodations">Examinations Guidelines</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-602"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/grading-and-honoursdistinction-standing">Grading and Honours/Distinction Standing</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-606"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/written-work-guidelines-extensions-and-penalties">Written Submissions Guidelines</a></li> <li class="last leaf menu-mlid-605"><a href="/guidelines-and-procedures/transcript-ordering">Transcript Ordering</a></li> </ul></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <!-- /#sidebar-first --> </div> <!-- /#main --> </div> <!-- /#main-wrapper --> <div id="footer-wrapper"> <div id="footer-top"> <div class="container"> <div class="region region-footer-top"> <div id="block-block-1" class="block block-block"> <div class="content"> <p style="text-align: right;"><em>漏 University of Toronto Faculty of Law Academic Handbook, 2013 - 2022</em></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <!-- /#footer-top --> <div id="footer-bottom"> <div class="container"> <div class="region region-footer-bottom"> <div id="block-menu-block-1" class="block block-menu-block clearfix"> <div class="content"> <div class="menu-block-wrapper menu-block-1 menu-name-menu-footer-utility parent-mlid-0 menu-level-1"> <ul class="menu"><li class="first leaf menu-mlid-407"><a href="http://www.law.utoronto.ca/accessibility" title="">Accessibility</a></li> <li class="leaf menu-mlid-408"><a href="http://www.law.utoronto.ca/about/contact-us" title="">Contact the Faculty</a></li> <li class="last leaf menu-mlid-409"><a href="http://www.law.utoronto.ca/comments-or-questions" title="">Comments or Questions?</a></li> </ul></div> </div> </div> <div id="block-block-2" class="block block-block"> <h2>University of Toronto Faculty of Law</h2> <div class="content"> <p>84 Queen's Park Cres.
