Grades

The Gradebook is a configurable tool that can be linked to Dropboxes, Quizzes, Discussions and other assessed activities, allowing your students a quick look at their progress. Together, the items in the Gradebook represent all the work that is evaluated in a course. In order to use the Grades tool, you must set up a gradebook.

In most cases, students will only be able to see their final grades in Quest. Instructors are not permitted to release final grades until after the exam period is over. For more information on this see Policy 46

Note: As a matter of good practice, it is suggested that you create your Gradebook before you create any course activities (Dropbox assignments, Quizzes, Discussions, or Competencies) that you wish to link to it, but it is possible to create gradebook items as you create your activities.
