Key Requirements & Best Practices
-
Course eligibility for reports: For courses to be included in academic summaries, GPA rollups, and term report cards, they must be designated as Official courses and have at least one Grading Category configured in the gradebook.
-
Aggregation consistency: When using weighted aggregation methods, verify that category weights sum correctly across each grading term to prevent unintended point skews.
-
Late submission penalties: If automated late penalties are enabled in Grade Settings, deductions are calculated against the assignment due date and reflected in the student gradebook with penalty indicators.
