Link a Quiz to a Grades Category

The process for linking a quiz to a Grades category is similar to when it is linked to an item. Linking to a category from the Quizzes area requires that the category already exists in the Manage Grades tab of Grades.

Select Edit or Link to Existing, to edit the quiz gradebook item or to link to an exisiting gradebook item.
1. Edits to linked gradebook items can be done via the Grades tool. CPI suggests completing edits there.
2. Please note “Link to Exisiting grade item” does not refer to a category. Linking to gradebook categories is done via the Add or Edit options.
Select Add to Grade Book, to create a new gradebook item. We recommend that the grade item should have the same name as your quiz, or something very similar. You can enter information about the grade item at this point, or you can edit it later. Click Ok to close the window.
