Using Decaying Average
The gradebook in the Elementary course uses the “decaying average” setting in Canvas. The Decaying Average calculation factors the average of all assessment items while weighing the most recent (current) submission to any assignment associated with this outcome at a higher percentage.
...
By default, the Canvas decaying average is set at 65/35, meaning the current item is weighted at 65%, and the average of all other user scores is weighted at 35%. However, users can specify between 1% and 99% for the current percentage, and prior scores are weighted against the percentage difference. Note that the average is rounded to the next two decimals. If there is only one result, then the single score will be displayed.
...
Current item score: 5
Average of prior item scores: (4 + 3 + 2) / 3 = 3
Calculated score: 5 (.65) + 3 (.35) = 3.25 + 1.05 = 4.3
