Moodle Grades: Add Manual Grade Item

Summary

Assignment drop boxes are linked to the Gradebook from the assignment settings when the Assignment is created. However, if you have added any manual assignments, for example a quiz that was taken in the F2F classroom, you must add this assignment to the Gradebook manually in the Gradebook setup area.

This Guide Will Help You to:

  1. Add a manual grade item step-by-step
  2. Tip: if you get lost in the gradebook
  3. Access the Gradebook setup alternatively

Steps

On the Moodle course homepage, click Grades. * (see alternative access to Gradebook below)

  1. On the left side of the page, click Grade Report-scroll down to Gradebook set up.
