Updating the grade aggregation in a course
Exclude Empty Grades "Empty Grades" are grades that have not been entered in the gradebook yet. A grade may be empty because a student has not completed a course assessment yet, or because the instructor hasn't graded submitted work. Empty grades display as dashes in the gradebook, and are different than scores of zero. Zeros are calculated in the course total, but empty grades (dashes) do not count towards the course total by default. By leaving Exclude Empty Grades enabled, you are directing AsULearn to display a course total that only includes the graded items in the course, while ignoring grades that have not yet been entered. 1. In the settings bar along the top of your course, select the Grades link.
2. Open the dropdown menu in the top left part of the page, and select Gradebook setup.
3. Within Gradebook setup, click the first ••• icon at the top of the Actions column, then select Edit category.
4. Open the Aggregation menu and select your preferred aggregation.
5. Click the Save button at the bottom of the popover window.
