Creating a grade report and put it on the homepage.

Question:

 How do I create a grade report and have it show up on the home page of my course?

Answer:

This is a pretty easy task to do, and one that makes student's lives a little easier in your course. The first thing you need to do is create the grade report. Navigate to the Manage Tab > Gradebook > Grade Report. Now if you have a report in here, great. If not, enter in the title of your grade report such as "Overall Grade Report."  After you have entered the title, make sure category is set to all and click on the add item button on the right hand side.

Now to place the grade report on the front page of your homepage, navigate to the home page of the course. A quick way to do this is by clicking on the word course in the page's breadcrumbs at the top of the page. Once you are at the course's homepage, under the course name, click on the Edit Page link.  Click on the Add Components button.  Now scroll through the list that shows up and check the box next to Gradebook Reports and click on the button Add Selected. Click Save on the upper right and the Reports nugget should be showing up on the front page of your course.
