Defining & Adjusting Grade Weights 

As an instructor, you do have the ability to adjust the preset category weights by group in XED. 

Note: Currently, you do not have the ability to globally adjust your category weights. This must be done individually for each group. 

Step 1: On the left navigation menu, click Group Management. 

Step 2: Locate the group you intend to adjust the weights for and click EDIT. 

Step 3: Ensure the Weight tab is selected. 

Step 4: Review the default settings. They are configured to add up to 100%. Use the + and – signs to adjust the weights for each category. You cannot use the + sign initially because XED will not allow you to go over 100%. You may use the – sign to lower the weight of one category, then use the + sign to increase the weight of another category. Adjust the percentages to meet the unique needs of your course. 

Note: You will be notified if your percentages do not add up to 100%. You may not save your changes unless the sum of percentages is equal to 100%. 

Step 5: Click Save Changes. Users will be able to see the category weights in the score reports.
