Purpose
The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how to add a manual grade item for activities that don't have a corresponding Moodle activity.

To create a manual grade item, click on the Grades tab in your course.
In the dropdown menu defaulted to Grader report, select Gradebook setup.
Click the Add dropdown menu and select Add grade item.
