Talk:Scales

The Cool Scale - Not cool, Not very cool, Fairly cool, Cool, Very cool, The coolest thing ever!

(Valued as 0/5pts, 1/5pt, 2/5pts, 3/5pts, 4/5pts, and 5/5pts respectively in any normalized aggregation method)

(Valued as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 respectively in the sum aggregation method)

Please explain what the dickens "normalized" and "sum" aggregation method means. Is 'Natural' grading "normalised" or "sum" ? Who knows? Either way, scales don't seem to work with Natural grading and so the many teachers who want to use scales are excluded from using this intuitive method.

I have just realised that this is the v2.9 doc page -- my comments apply to v2.8 , so it might be different in v2.9. Even so, it would be good to explain the difference between 'normalised' and 'sum' and explain where 'natural' fits in.

Hi everyone,

I have a question concerning the possibility to move a scale. Where do I have to move it and why? I can only see a list of scales I created with edit and delete icons, but no arrows. Not even the image shows arrows Thank you for your answer, Daniela Rotelli

Response to Daniele

Yes you are right - I can't move it either so I removed the word "move" Thanks again --Mary Cooch (talk) 18:56, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
