view student scores alphabetically by last name

I'd like to know this as well.  To get around this, I've renamed my students so that their last names were before their first.  For example, if I have John Smith in 3rd period, then I renamed him as it is below.  That way the names are organized by class, then by last name alphabetically.  

3 Smith John

You can do this under Admin --> Students

1. I agree completely. As a teacher, I love Khan, but it is tedious to record student scores.  I would like to see Khan improve the scorecard feature where teachers would have some options and filters.  For instance, I only want to look at exercises, quizzes, tests and mastery points.  I don't need to see videos checked.  It stretches the scorecard onto too many screens and it is not efficient. 
2. Also, I would like to have the option to see raw scores instead of percents so I can easily assign points to students.
3. Ideally, it would be nice if Khan could download to Canvas.
4. Also, it would be easier to use some codes for assignments to speed up the recording scores and scanning through work.   For instance, 4.1A Slope from a graph exercise.  4.1B Graphing from slope exercise. Etc...

I agree, something Khan Academy should look into.  

All grade books and rosters are listed by last name, so I don't know why Khan Academy would alphabetize by first name.

It's very tedious to go in and edit every student's name.  Most teachers have over 100 students!!

Agreed! I have over 200 students and am a little put off to use Khan for this very reason. It will take me much too long to transfer grades over using a roster sorted by first name.
Why isn’t Khan responding to any of these posts regarding this issue?
