Creating a Grade Item to Calculate Midterm Grades

In the Grades section of your D2L site, you can create a new grade item that calculates the midterm grades.

When you are in your course site:

• Click on Grades.
• In the Grades Area, select Manage Grades.
• Click on New Item, and select the Calculated item type.

The next screen will include two tabs: Properties and Restrictions. Starting with Properties:

• Type in a Name for this grade item (e.g., Midterm Grade).
• Select the grade items to include.
• Once you have selected/deselected the options you want on this tab, click on the Save button.

The Restrictions tab will allow you to hide this grade item or make it visible for a specific date range.

Once you have completed creating this grade item, it will become part the Enter Grades layout.
