To set up the Column for an assessment without a submission, access the Grade Centre:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Click on ‘Create Column’.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  2. Give the Column a Name (the title of the assessment).<\/li>\n
  3. Provide a description (this is optional and students will be able to see this).<\/li>\n
  4. Under Primary display chose Score to match how other assignments are set up.<\/li>\n
  5. Assign the Category to “Assignment”<\/li>\n
  6. Points possible needs to be 100 always as marking is always out of 100.
