How do I set up weighting in the gradebook?
Navigate to the course and open the Gradebook from the course Administration menu
Click the "Grades" link.
Open the "Categories and items" page. If your gradebook uses tab-based navigation, click on the tab that says "Categories and items." If your gradebook uses a dropdown menu, locate "Categories and items" and select "Simple view."
Set the course Aggregation to "Weighted mean of Grades."
Enter the weighted values you wish to apply to your assignments. A value of "30" will cause that item to be weighted 30%. You can assign a weigh to an assignment individually, or to an entire category.
If you assign a weight to a category, then note that the individual category's aggregation strategy does not need to be set to "weighted mean of grades." Instead, the category-level aggregation may be set to "Sum of grades."
Be sure to click "Save Changes" at the bottom to save your weights.
