   Info
   title Activities vs Grade Items
   Activities in the gradebook (like quizzes, assignments, questionnaires, forums with whole forum grading enabled, etc) are most often graded from the activity itself, but you can also override those grades from Single View, or just decide to grade them from there. A Grade item you've added to the gradebook requires no override, since it is just a 'dumb' column inserted to hold a number, not connected to any activity in your course.

   
   

2. In the Grade and Feedback columns, enter or edit existing grades and feedback.
   
   
3. Click Save  (at top or below listing) the bottom right) to save grade changes.  A confirmation message will appear: click Continue to refresh the Single View grading page.

When you return to the Grader report (and turn Edit mode off - below left), overridden grade items will be displayed with an orange background and marked “Overridden” to indicate grades have been edited in the gradebook (rather than from the activity itself). When you return to Single View (below right), there will be a check in the Override column to remind you that you overrode those grades.

Perform Bulk Insert 

With bulk insert Single view's Bulk insert grades, instructors can enter the enter the same grade for multiple items or students based on specific criteria. For example, following a quiz, the teacher may want to enter a zero score for any student who failed to take it by using these steps. Here's a video walkthrough of this useful process, followed by the step-by-step below:

1. From the Single View for the activity in the gradebook with Edit mode on, select the Perform bulk insert checkbox below the grade items or students listed.
   use the Actions dropdown menu to select the Bulk insert grades.

3. Then, choose Empty grades Set For to Empty grades (default) which means the insert will only happen for students without existing scores.
   
4. Set Insert value to 0 (default) for the zero score in our example.

5. Note that you could also select All grades if you needed to quickly give all students the same score for an activity or grade item. Then, insert the score you wish to be assigned. In the example above, all students who did not attempt the quiz would be given a zero with one click. This is very useful for keeping the gradebook aggregation accurate!
