Q1? S1? What should you check for an assignment's "Grading Periods"?
For grading purposes in Synergy, you will want to assign grades to both their appropriate quarter AND semester. (For example, Q1 & S1, or Q2 & S1, or Q3 & S2, not forgetting Q4 & S2).
Just where do you do this? Check out the two methods shown below.
To change a whole bunch of assignments to the correct Grading Period(s), you can watch this video, or follow the instructions below.
1. Find "Assignments" under the "Grade Book" tab.
2. Select "Show All Periods", increase the number of assignments to allow for all assignments you have in your gradebook, and click the "Grading Periods" tab.
3. Notice that this example shows a number of assignments NOT assigned to the Semester 1 (S1 Q2) grade. I want ALL assignments assigned to the S1 Q2 grading period, as this is what I will use to calculate my final grade.
4. Click the "All" button under S1 Q2 to assign all of your assignments to this grading period. Be sure to save your changes by clicking the green "Save Grading Periods" when done.
