In Category Averages to Calculate, select the categories for which you want GradeBook to calculate averages, then click Next.
For each selected category, the GradeBook calculates each student's average and includes it as a part of the final grade.
For each assignment category, select how you want to weight assignments when calculating the category average.
- Equally
The point value of each assignment is normalized so each assignment in the category has equal weight.
- By Point Values
The unadjusted point value of each assignment is used as its weight.
For example, the Homework category average is different depending on how assignments are weighted:
Weighting
HW1 Score
HW2 Score
HW3 Score
Category Average
Equally
6/10
35/50
80/100
By Point Values
6/10
35/50
80/100
You can also adjust the relative weights of individual assignments in the GradeBook settings.
Click Next.
Select the number of low-scoring assignments to drop for each category.
Assignments with the lowest scores will be dropped and not count toward the category average or final score.
You can also drop individual assignments in the GradeBook settings.
