Intended Audience: Students
Introduction:
Exempted items, such as assignments or quizzes, do not count towards the total grade calculation. The reasons for an instructor to exempt a grade may vary. This process describes two ways to check whether an item has been exempted from a student's overall grade in their Brightspace course.
Details:

Grades
- First, access your course and then tap the Grades option from the "Course Tools" tab option in the Navbar.
