The Gradebook is non-punitive. So the null grades do not count against students by default. Only grades inputted will be calculated in the total score. You cannot have grades that are more than a hundred percent. Here is how to give students extra credit. You can drop the lowest grade in a category. |
To get started, determine how your grades will be calculated and use easy math
Course Site will allow for multiple grading schemas, but it is easiest to use natural aggregation and total all of your assignments out of 100 or 1000 points. You can also choose to make all assignments 100 points and weight each category. It is normally less troublesome to use either a set points value or weights, but not both.
Go to your Course Site Grade Set-up
Confirm that Aggregation is set to Natural (Default)* Go to Gradebook Set-up>Edit (Top Level of Categories)>Edit Settings
Leave all other settings at default
Set up categories ("Folders") and organize in your grade book setup
*Go to Gradebook Set-up, scroll to bottom of screen to Add, and add category
Example categories: Discussions, Exams, Weekly Quizzes, Attendance, Turnitin Assignments, etc.
Organize your grade items
* Check items to be moved on far right (under select menu) Scroll to bottom of screen
* Select drop down box under “move selected items to” Grades will be recalculated and progress bar givenUpdate Item point values as needed
If you have added a course site item that is integrated into your gradebook such as an assignmentan electronic assignment that students will upload their work to, you can only change the point value by editing the item located in your course topics. The default value will be 100 points.
If you added a line item directly to your gradebook to manually enter a grade for a collected written assignment, you can change the point value by going to the gradebook setup and clicking on edit>edit settings...>edit grade item.
Note: If grades have already been awarded, you will have to rescale in order to make adjustments in point values.
