The Coursera Grade Calculator is a free Chrome extension designed to enhance the user experience for Coursera learners by providing a clear overview of their academic performance. It addresses the common issue of not having an easily accessible overall grade display by adding a grade summary box directly on the Assignments page. This feature allows users to quickly assess their current standing in a course, making it easier to track progress.

This extension calculates the current average based on graded assignments and offers a projection of future grades by allowing users to input expected scores for ungraded tasks. It is particularly useful for those wishing to monitor their performance without the need for extensive setup, as it operates automatically when users view their assignments. Overall, it is an essential tool for students aiming for a better understanding of their academic trajectory.
