Setting up IC Assignments for Blended Grading

I had a teacher contact me for guidance about setting up his assignments for grading in the blended environment as the high school transitions from traditional to standards-based grading. So today I went through and made a screencast to walk you through the process. I do have some points at the beginning of the video to keep in mind and I did try to provide clarification between the middle and high school processes as much as possible.


As always, if it would be easier to walk through it with me 1:1, feel free to make an appointment with me and I'll go through it with you based on what the current set-up method is for your school.

Good luck!

But the premise for all of them is the same. Give your students a selection of options to chose from and let them go with it. Beyond hopefully boosting engagement, the teacher gets the added benefit of not have a ga...
