Before you can use the Grades tool, you must set up a grade book.

 

Before you set up the grade book, you should consider the following:

  • What grade items do you plan to evaluate users on?
  • How much will each grade item be work? (both the points value and the weight the item contributes towards the final grade).
  • How you want grade items to be evaluated.
  • How you want to calculate the final grades.

 

Although you can adjust your grade book later, making changes to how the grade book is structured or calculated after users’ grades have been entered can significantly change your data.

 

To access the Grades Setup Wizard:

  • Click Assessment > Grades 

 

 

  • Select Setup Wizard
