Assignment weighting determines what value an assignment has in relation to other assignments. The higher the weight of an assignment, the greater worth an assignment grade has towards a student's cumulative grade. For example, if a student has three graded assignments ― two homework assignments weighing 25 each, and one exam weighing 50 ― then the homework assignments are each worth 25% of the student's cumulative grade, and the exam is worth 50%.

The Assignments weights are relative numbers, and therefore, the total weight of all assignments does not need to equal 100 (weights are just relative numbers). Cumulative grades will always be calculated as a percentage of the total assignment weight. |
