1. Navigate to Assignments.
2. Click New Assignment, enter a Name and any instructions.
3. Under Evaluation and Feedback, click New Grade Item.
4. From the Choose a Grade Item Type options, click Selectbox.
5. Enter a Score Out Of, along with any additional evaluation and feedback information, and restrictions.
6. Click Save and Close.
7. When evaluating submissions for the assignment, click the Score dropdown menu and choose an option from your grade scheme, for example, A+, B-, etc.

Note: An Organizational or course level grade scheme must exist prior to creating your grade item.
