Gradebook uses
Please add common gradebook uses below to help us in planning gradebook improvements.
Using different aggregation methods
- Using 'Weighted mean of grades'
- Using 'Sum of grades' Case 1 - Brand new course, no existing assignments or categories, sum of points grading with a single category
- Using 'Sum of grades' with a grade calculation Case 2 - This case begins with a course containing assignments, but no categories. It will illustrate the creation of categories, putting assignments in categories, and setting up the grade calculation to produce the total number of points earned for the course. We will also take a look at setting up an uncategorized section to allow for assignments that should not be included in the final point total.
The keep-it-simple-please teacher
The keep-it-simple-please teacher just wants to look at the gradebook, but doesn't want to change anything (even by accident!). They'd like the total grade for the course to be calculated just the same as the default in Moodle 1.8.
The keep-it-simple-please teacher needs an easy way to look at an individual student's grades from the gradebook (like it was in 1.8 when you could click on a student's name) for parents' evenings.
Gradebook set-up
A view-only version of the gradebook can be created for the keep-it-simple-please teacher by not setting (or preventing) some/all of the following capabilities: Edit grades, Hide/unhide grades or items, Lock grades or items, Manage grade items, Manage letter grades, Unlock grades or items
Regarding an easy way to look at an individual student's grades from the gradebook, see MDL-12972.
