Summary

In this chapter, we have seen a range of ways in which the gradebook can be used to display student grades and calculate final course grades. We have seen how numerical grades and scales can be calculated to show a final course grade. We have also investigated how the different grading types and aggregation methods can be used.

With many options available in the gradebook, aggregation types can be quite confusing. However, having worked through the examples, you should now have a better understanding of the key settings related to the calculation of grades within the gradebook. This should give you an overall understanding of the aggregation types and settings available, but you can also use the chapter in future to apply the settings you need for your course.

In the next chapter, we will see how we can further customize the gradebook to organize grades into categories.
