L ESSON P LANNER P REFERENCES In your lesson planner preferences you have three options: Use weighting on groups Use each scores percent value for calculation (rather than points) Grading Scale- this should already be set to “secondary”

U SE W EIGHTING ON G ROUPS If you are a teacher that weights different types of assignments, this option needs to be selected. If you are a teacher that grades by total points, leave this option off. Example:Daily Assignments 30% Homework 20% Tests 50% Warning: If you use this option, make sure your tasks add up to 100%, otherwise grades will not calculate correctly.

U SE E ACH S CORES P ERCENT V ALUE FOR C ALCULATION This option calculates grade based on their percentage values rather than the points that they are worth. For example: A student receives a 20/20 on one assignment and a 50/100 on another. Normally this would calculate to a 58.3% (70/120). If you select the percent value option the same student would receive a 75% ((50+100)/2)
