How can I add a graded Assignment to my course?

To add a graded Assignment to your course, follow these steps:

1.  Turn editing on using the "Turn Editing On" button top-right from the front page of the course.  (this is also available in the course administration block as the first option) 
2. Click the add button at the bottom of the block.
3. Set all assignment parameters and scroll down and save the changes. 

Students will now see the assignment in the course and it will show up in their grade book with the point value you have selected.
