Assignment and Assessment Marks

To view an overview video for this feature, go to:

The marks entered for assignments are calculated in students’ averages unless you choose to exclude a specific assignment. GradeBook does not include an assignment in students’ averages until a mark is entered for it or the assignment has been designated as missing. You can enter assignment marks on the Assignment Marks screen and GradeBook Grid. After an assignment’s due date has passed, various icons, symbols, and colors represent its grading status throughout GradeBook. Refer to the “Icons, Symbols, Codes, and Colors Used on the Assignment Marks Screen” table for more information.

Note: If a Shortcut displays in the chart below, you can press the keys as appropriate within a cell in the Assignment Marks screen. Other icons and colors are for display only.
