Creating Grade Items
+
  1. To begin the process of creating a grade item, select Manage Grades from the Grades navbar. Then, click New. From the drop-down menu, choose Item.
  2. There are many Grade Items to choose from. Usually, the choice will be Numeric. For this demonstration,Numeric will be selected for the Grade Item Type.
  3. This demonstration will begin with Quizzes. A numeric Grade Item will be created with the following settings:
    • Name: Quiz 1
    • Category: Quizzes
    • Max Points: 20
    • Weight: Automatically populated (because the category was set to automatically weight all items evenly).
    • Grade Scheme: Default Scheme – Percentage
  4. Click Save and New.
  5. You can repeat this process for all grade items needed. For this demonstration, three more quizzes were created (Quizzes 2, 3, and 4).
  6. Click on Grades List to see your gradebook. Now, four quizzes are listed.
    • Note: The Quizzes category is weighted at 20%, but each quiz within the category is weighted at 25% (25% of the Category Weight.)
