This is important to get correct, as students will see the same order.Īnd here (below) is an example of what a graded student will see. Then click again on the box in the location where you want to move the item. Note that if you click any of the little arrows next to the grade items it will allow you to arrange the order.
There will be a few more steps for some very specific things, but here is an example of what an organized Gradebook should look like (click image for larger version):. Select the appropriate category from the menu, then scroll down and save. For gradable resources, choose to "edit settings" and expand the "Grade" category. It will also help you visualize the course as a whole. That way, it is much easier to populate your categories with resources as you create them. As stated above, it is strongly recommended that you setup your gradebook before you do anything else. Now that your weights are setup, you can begin to create resources and assign them to categories. Your gradebook might look something like this: **After making any changes, click the green "Save Changes" button to confirm.** 
Using our example from step 6, all you do is type 30 in the box next to quizzes, 30 in the box next to discussion forums, and 40 in the box next to exams.
After making all of your categories and setting the aggregation types, you can assign the weights. Exactly as you did in Step 3, you can select "edit" for any category to change the name, or aggregation type. Note that at any time, you can edit a category. Repeat this step until each assessment category on your syllabus has its own category. This category will calculate the average of student quiz scores, then Moodle will do the math to weigh that average into the total average grade. Then for Aggregation, set it to "Mean of grades." Then click the green "Save changes" button at the bottom of the page. If it is for your Quizzes, type "Quizzes". To do this, scroll all the way down to the bottom of the Gradebook setup page and select the green "Add Category" button. Then you should make a category for each. For example, if you have three different ways to assess students such as: Quizzes, Exams, Forums (see table). Using categories helps you stay organized, but it also helps your students acquire a clear picture of their progress in your course. Now you will use your syllabus to help you create grading, or assignment categories. Further note that you don't need to add a title for this category, it automatically makes the title the course title, so leave that blank. For everything else on this page, it is recommended to leave the default settings. However, note that you will need to manually enter a "0" for a student who doesn't complete an assignment. This is stating that if the box is checked, then any assignment that doesn't have a grade won't count towards the students' total grade. You'll see an option to show more, click that, then you'll see: "Exclude empty grades". After it reloads look directly under the Aggregation option. So, in this case select "Weighted mean of grades" for Aggregation, then scroll down and select the green "Save changes" button. That is, a gradebook where certain items or categories will be weighted, and the total grade will be an average of all the weighted items. We're going to set this gradebook up in the way that is most common. Under the "actions" column you will see an "edit" button. For the first item of your gradebook you should see the name of your course, this is your course category. The first thing you want to setup is how your grades will be aggregated. For gradebook setup, be sure "Setup" is selected. From here you can also click to view your gradebook. Across the top you will see your gradebook menu. Enter your course, then click the “Gradebook setup” menu item in your administration block. Grab your syllabus, head to your course in Moodle, and follow the steps below. It is strongly recommended to do some gradebook setup before you begin adding resources and fleshing the course out. Meaning the final average will be calculated using weighted categories. This gradebook will be setup in a traditional way. In most cases, you only need to change a few things and Moodle will do all of the work. Gradekeeper reviews how to#
