For example, if you have two assignments out of 100 marks and they are included in an assignment group worth 30% of the final grade, then each assignment will be worth 15% or half of the total percentage for that assignment group.If you have assignments that are worth a different percentage of the final grade, they should be in separate Assignment Groups. Assignments in an Assignment Group will be weighted according to the proportionate marks for each assignment.Ensure that weighted groups add up to 100% of the final grade.Items in the Assignment Groups can be weighted so that final grades are calculated automatically based on Quercus items that have been graded.You can use Assignment Groups to group assignments into categories that can then be assigned a specific weight (percentage) and automatically calculate a weighted Total grade in the Gradebook.
