A couple of other people on here have suggested several "footnote"
systems. While they work, they seem like too much work for me. I prefer
"quick-and-easy" solutions. Here's what *I'd* do: RIGHT-click on the
student's grade. From the menu that pops up, click on "Add score footnote
(L) Late." This put a tiny "L" next to that student's grade to indicate
the low score was caused by lateness. Doesn't get much simpler than that.

The easiest way is to set up a separate test column just for extra credit.
(Call it "ExtraCr" or something like that.) The key is to put a ZERO in
the "possible" box. Then, give the students the number of extra credit
points they got. This increases the students' totals without increasing
the "possible points" total.

It's not worth purchasing it as an individual. It's most effective when
your school (or district) supports it.
