3. Setup for Cumulative Mark in Semester 2.
In order to publish a report card each semester, all courses require an S1 and S2. For S2 to show an ongoing transparent cumulative mark, create a category called “Semester 1 Mark” in S2. If needed, add a “Final Exam” category in S2. See slides for details.
