Exempting a Grade Item for a Student
Select Grades from the course navbar.
From the Manage Grades area, click the down arrow beside the grade item you want to exempt grades for and select Enter Grades from the drop-down menu.
Search for the student with the grade exemption and select the checkbox beside their name.
Click the Exempt button above the table.
Using the delivered Grade Exemption functionality will remove the Grade Item from the student's final grade calculation. For example, if the exempted grade is worth 10% of the final grade in the course, the student's final grade will now be calculated out of 90, then scaled to be out of 100.
