Talk:Scales
From MoodleDocs
- 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.
