At times, you may want to curve a grade. Points can easily be added to create a Curve for a Grade item.

Note: a student cannot earn more than the overall point value for the assignment.

Curving a Grade

1. Click Gradebook from the Course Navigation menu.
2. Click on the Setup tab.
3. Locate the assignment and click Edit under the Actions column.
   • Select Edit Settings.
4. Under Grade Item, click Show more.
5. Go to the Offset setting and input the number of additional points to be awarded.
