Setting up your Gradebook: [2] Set up your Preferences Weighting Example: Tests/Quizzes = 30% Homework = 20% Projects = 20% Classwork = 20% Participation = 10% Total = 100% Scores Percent Value : Everything is worth 100% Points are not tracked You are tracking things based on A,B,C,D rather than 80%,90%,100% etc. (So you wouldn’t be looking at students possibly earning 400/400 points for the term.) If you have this checked and you make an assignment worth 60 points and a student received 56 out of 60, it will look like the student got 56% instead of 56/60 YOU MUST SELECT YOUR GRADING SCALE! This is going to be Grading Scale MS or Grading Scale HS unless your school is approved to use a different Grading Scale. (Check with your administrator if there are questions. )
