Myth 1: I cannot give extra credit points without
affecting the actual total assignment points.
Actually, you can give extra credit without changing your total
assignment points! Create an assignment in the Assignments
tool on the left navigation bar and make it worth 0 points. This
will create a column in the gradebook where you will manually
add the grade. Easy Peasy! And your students will love you!
Myth 2: In my current course I cannot access a
question bank in another course.
With the Bookmark feature, you can access any or all of your
question banks in any course. Just find the question bank in
any course and select the Bookmark this Question Bank icon.
