Running the Gradebook Assignment Averages Report

Use this procedure to display a graphical representation of the average score or percentage correct for assignments. You can use this report to compare the class averages to a student's averages to see how a student is progressing in relation to the rest of the class. You can graph assignment averages as a bar chart or a line graph. You can also select to display a 3-D version of each graph.

The graph displays 15 assignments per page. Below the graph, there is a list of the assignments included, the student's scores (if running for an individual student), and the class average for the assignment.
