Drop Grade Item
How do I drop a student's lowest Quiz grade (or assignment grade)?
Note: If you wish to drop one assignment or quiz from the gradebook, you must have your gradebook organized by categories. In addition, all grade items within a category must have the same point value (or weight). Grade items marked as Bonus items cannot be dropped.
- Click Grades
- Click on the name of the Grade Category you wish to enable this option for
-
Under the Grading section
-
Check the box next to Distribute points across all items
-
Enter the points per grade item in the Points per item box
- For example, if you have 4 Quizzes worth 25 points each, enter 25 in this box
- Remember: All grade item points (or weight %) must be evenly distributed. If your grade items are not evenly distributed checking the box and entering Points per item will change grades!
-
Enter the total number of Grade Items you wish to drop in the appropriate box
- For example, if you wish to drop the lowest Quiz score, enter 1 in the Number of lowest non-bonus items to drop for each user box.
