Excluding grade from grade book

When selecting the option to exclude empty grades, this may result in an average that’s not accurate. In order to avoid an inaccurate average, an instructor needs to go to the gradebook and select the grade.  

NOTE: the default settings for empty grades are set at a value of “0”, this may be modified. In order to avoid an inaccurate grade, one may go into their gradebook in the “view” mode and select “Grader Report”.
