<h1>Weight</h1>
|
|
<p>This is where you can set the grade weights for a category as well as dropping the lowest X assignments
|
|
from grade calculation, adding bonus points to a category, hiding a category from grade display and calculation.</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Weight: This allows you to weight grades by category. The weight is the percent that a category will
|
|
contribute to a grades total. A total will be listed at the bottom in green text if the total weights for
|
|
all categories totals 100 and red otherwise. </li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Drop X Lowest: This is used drop the X number of lowest scores from a students grade calculation.
|
|
The point totals for a category should be all the same value or unpredictable results may occur.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Bonus Points: Is used to give extra points that do not change the point total for a category. This
|
|
can be used to adjust for unfair questions or similiar. These will be applied equally to all students. If
|
|
you wish to selectively provide extra credit; add a new graded item and set it to extra credit in "Set Categories".</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Hidden: if this box is checked it will remove a category from display and also from grade calculation. This an
|
|
easy way to only add items to the gradebook after they have been graded. Since graded items that have not been
|
|
categorized will automatically be assigned to "Uncategorized" you can set the "Uncategorized" category to hidden
|
|
and then as you grade items move them to whichever category you like and students can then see their grade.</li>

</ul> |
