Experimenting with the Gradebook.
Case 1: Brand new course, no existing assignments or categories.
This case is beginning with a brand new course. Since there is no previous content, no graded categories or assignments have been carried over from a previous version of the course.
We start with the creation of 6 off-line assignments. These could be any type of assignment, of course, but for the sake of example we will take the simplest.
This is what the course looks like.
At this point, the assignments have not been categorized in the gradebook. A sample student has been given 10 points for each assignment. These points were entered manually by going to the gradebook, turning editing on, and the integer 10 entered in each assignment cell. The default setting for the gradebook, when you have done no work on it at all, is "simple weighted mean". You can see in this image that the grade is, as expected, calculated as 100 for the course.
