When grading activities integrated in your gradebook (electronic submissions)- items that students have submitted in course site, you SHOULD ALWAYS grade from the assignment page.  There are a few ways to find the assignment's page.  Click on the blue assignment name in column header from the grader report OR find the assignment listed in topics or use the activities block, click on name, and go to “Grade”. By default, students will be notified via email when graded.

If you grade any item from the grader report rather than from the assignment page and the item has already been given a grade -- the previous grade and the new grade will be averaged.  You will need to clear this override in the SINGLE VIEW and SAVE your changes.
