Is it possible to set the numeric grades in a course to show to the tenth decimal only? It currently shows to the hundredth. I've seen some posts that say it's possible to change it but wasn't sure how to make the changes.
I could not find settings for changing the formatting of numbers on the Grades page, and I looked at the admin and instructor settings. I do see that the second decimal only displays if a second decimal is available. In other words, if I type only one decimal then only one is visible. Of course I don't have as much control when a student takes a quiz where automatically graded score results in a decimal.
Your question reminds me of a situation I encountered using another LMS that does allow the users to choose the number of decimal places to display. They chose zero and there was a group of assignments where a student's scores were 7, 7, and 7 but the group total was 20! We thought that the system forgot how to add until the instructor shared that they actually awarded 6.5, 6.5, and 6.5 for the three assignments. Those add up to 19.5, which rounds to 20. Perhaps there is wisdom in displaying those extra decimals if they are present.
This has been going on for 3 semesters now…apparently it's a bug in the system, but I'd love to know when it will be fixed. After I enter a grade in Speed Grader, I look back onto Gradebook and some students' grades simply show the assignment icon. If I right-click on it, the actual points appear, but then disappear after…
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
I tried the Quick Reassess feature today. Once I approved the questions and created the assessment it went to the tracker for Block 1. But I can't find the new assessment in my assessments to add to Blocks 2 & 4. If I have to recreate for each class, they won't have the same questions. I also cannot find the option to…
