these steps you'll want to make sure that you have
personalized your might have course to
beat your course learning objectives and
most importantly that you have confirmed the point
values for your assignments this is
important because when you add a graded item

a great book column based on the point values
in mine modifying the point
values after the item has been linked into your LMS
course will result in an incorrect assignment
