Creating and Managing Grading Components

Grading components can be enabled on Teamie at site level or classroom level by your site
administrator. If enabled at site level, the grading components will remain same for all the
classrooms. On the other hand, if it is enabled at classroom level, then instructors can create
grading component based on their requirement, group assessments by grading components
and grade all types of assessments (Assignment, Quiz and Offline Test). In this article we will be
talking about the case in which grading components are enabled at the classroom level.

This article will guide you on:

• Creating a grading component for your classroom

• Allocating grading components to your classroom's assessments
• Setting grading components at section level

Creating a grading component

1. As an instructor, you can can create grading components for a specific classroom from that
classroom’s gradebook page. For this, click the ellipses (...
...) and then select Manage Grading
components option from the drop down.

2. On the Create Grading Components page, click +Add Component to add a grading
component. Enter the Title of the component and its Weightage (in percentage) as per your

requirement. You can also give a description for the component in case it is required for
internal usage.

3. Repeat step 2 to create more grading components with weightages.

Note
Note: The sum of the weightages of all the grading components cannot be greater than 100%.

4. Once you are done adding the grading components for your classroom, it is now time to
allocate grading components to your classroom's assessments.

Allocating grading components to your classroom's

assessments
1. On the classroom's gradebook page, click the ellipses (...
...) and then select Allocate Grading
components option from the drop down.

2. On Allocating Grading Components page, you will see two sections, “List of Assessments" and
“Grading Components”. Drag and drop the required assessments to their respective grading
components as per your requirement. This way you are grouping assessments by Grading
Components.

Note
Note: Assessments which are not grouped under any grading component will be categorized
under "Ungraded" column on the gradebook page.

3. Once you are done grouping the assessments under respective grading components, you can
check the grading component and their associated assessments on the classroom’s gradebook
page.

4. Select a grading component of your choice from the Grading Component filter drop down to
track learners' grading details.

Setting grading components at section level
Currently, you cannot enable grading component and assign weightage to them at a section
level in your classrooms. A workaround for that is adding components with the same name as
your sections and allocating the same assessments to the grading components as the sections.

Let's take a scenario for better comprehension. If you have three sections (say English, Physics
and Mathematics) in your classroom to which you wish to have a total of 100% as weightage of
assessment at a section level. For this, follow the given steps:

1. Create three grading components named English, Physics and Mathematics with the required
weightages.

2. Allocate grading components to your assessments in the same order as your sections, i.e, if
the section English has three assessments A, B and C, then drag and drop A, B and C under the
grading component English. Similarly, group the assessments of the sections Physics and
Mathematics under the respective grading components named Physics and Mathematics.
