    Type

    How the content item is to be graded. Select from the following choices:

    Auto Graded Content Select this if the grade and status of the content item is to be set to 100/Passed when the content item is launched by the student.
    Auto Graded Content (Non Scored) Select this if the content is set as passed when the content item is launched by the student. The instructor and administrator can still add a score to the content item. By default it will not set the score to 100%.
    Manually Graded Content Select this if the student must complete an action and the instructor is to manually set the grade and status of the content item.
    Not Graded Content Select this if the content item does not require a grade or status. When the student opens up this content, his content grade will be marked as “Browsed".
    Gradebook Item (No Content) Select this if there is no content for the student associated with this item ; however, the instructor would like to track it. This might be used for attendance, for example.
    Evaluation Select this if the content item requires action from the reporter in order for the student to advance within the course. This puts a block on the student to prevent him from continuing to the next content item until the manager/instructor evaluates him. Selecting Evaluation specifies this is a SCORM course that will log the evaluation score that the manager/instructor provides in the student record. See Forcing evaluation blocks in a course for more details.

    The instructor would take action on each course item using the Gradebook. See Managing the Gradebook.
