In this chapter, we saw some ways in which the Gradebook can be organized in order to make it easier to use through the use of categories. Apart from grouping graded items together, categories can also be used to further increase the options for grade calculations by choosing the graded items in a category that will not be included in the final grade. We also saw how to exclude individual grades from the final course total.

In the next chapters, we will look at how we can use the information in the Gradebook to report and review students' achievements.
