This gradebook is designed to help instructors who don't
want to assign two separate, individually weighted
grades for keystroking accuracy for a given document. Zimmerly's approach is to assign one grade based on keystroke
accuracy and format and completion times (for tests only). She
uses GDP's Override Weighted Average feature to
accomplish this. Then GDP automatically
calculates a grade average for each category and calculates
the final course grade.
