Bonus Points

  1. From the Setup menu, select Grading Rules, then select the Type Sets tab.
  2. Click New Type and create a task type named *bonus*.  You must place an asterisk (*) before and after the word bonus.
  3. Enter a weight of 0 (zero) under *bonus* in the Task Type Set that you want to use this *bonus* task type with and click on Close.
  4. From the Task menu, select New Task.  Enter a name for the new task, for example, Bonus Points.  Select *bonus* in the Type field.  Leave the Out Of Value as 0.
  5. The new task, Bonus Points, displays on your spreadsheet.  You can enter bonus points for one or more students.  Other students are not penalized.

FYI..

If you give a student a point in this new task on a Weighted numeric spreadsheet, his or her final spreadsheet average will increase by a percentage point.

If you are using Total Points, it simply adds points to the Points Received, not to the Percent.
