Calculations can be used to take previous grades in the gradebook, as shown in individual-item columns, and aggregate them using a custom calculation or formula. Using a Calculation can save an instructor considerable work in calculating grades throughout the semester, or provide a student with a quick snapshot of their progress in one or multiple parts of a course. To create a calculation, navigate to the Gradebook. Use the Add Item button to select "Add Calculation" from the resulting dropdown.
(NOTE: This is NOT intended for use in calculating a student's current or final overall grade! To create a space intended for final grades, Refer to our article discussing Overall Grades.)
