Controlling Assignment Weighting
You may want to give an assignment weighting with respect to overall course grade as calculated by
the system.
To give an assignment weighting:
1. From the Instructor Main Menu, select Gradebook.
2. On the Student Statistics screen select the assignment(s) for which you want to create a grade
report, and set the options for data you want to view.
3. Click Get Report to generate the assignment performance report.
3. Click the % Weight link at the bottom of the report to open the Assignment Weighting Table.
Adjust the values in the table to reflect the relative percentage of total grade credit you want
to associate with individual assignments.
4. Click the Ok button at the bottom of the table to save your changes and return to the main
Gradebook page.
Note: The system notifies you if an assignment’s weightings do not total to 100%. To
accommodate extra credit you are allowed to create assignment weightings that total
to more than 100%.
5. The system takes the relative weight you assign in this table, and applies it to calculate the
overall course grade for selected assignments in future class performance reports you
generate.
