Grading

grade_change

Definition: The event is emitted anytime when a submission is graded. These can happen as the result of a teacher changing a grade in the gradebook or speedgrader, a quiz being automatically scored, or changing an assignment's points possible or grade type. In the case of a quiz being scored, the grade_change event will be emitted as the result of a student turning in a quiz, and the user_id in the message attributes will be the student's user ID.

Trigger: Triggered anytime a grade is created or modified.
