Summary

In this chapter, we have seen some ways in which the gradebook can be organized to make it easier to use through the use of categories. Apart from grouping graded items together, categories can also be used to further increase the options for grade calculations by choosing the graded items in a category not to be included in the final grade. We have also seen how to exclude individual grades from the final course total.

In the next chapter, we will look at how we can use the information in the gradebook to report and review student achievement.
