Editing a grade category

Grades can be organised into grade categories.

A grade category has its own aggregated grade which is calculated from its grade items. There is no limit to the level of nesting of categories (a category may belong to another category). However, each grade item may belong to only one category. Also, all grade items and categories belong to at least one, permanent category: the course category.

To add a grade category:

  1. Select "Categories and items" from the gradebook dropdown menu.
  2. Click the "Add category" button near the bottom of the page.
  3. Give the grade category a meaningful name.
  4. Select grade category settings as appropriate. Advanced settings may be made available by clicking the "Show advanced" button.
  5. Click the "Save changes" button.

  1. Select "Categories and items" from the gradebook dropdown menu.
