Customize Grade Scale

Postby schoolingmomma on Mon Feb 01, 2010 1:26 pm

Is there consideration in the future to allow customization of the grade scale, for example, adding a weighted grade scale or instead of pass/fail; Allowing teachers the option to add "Mastered/Incomplete" over "Pass/Fail" , room for Rubric grading or just a customized grade scale to fit their particular needs?

For Science, for example, I'm considering using a "Weighted Grade Scale system" for Exploring Creation and instead of the traditional percentage or letter grade, weighing the grades as shown on:http://donnayoung.org/apologia/general-lab-book.htm#weight

Another example, I had my child work on the "Starfall Workbook" but instead of grading it, I wanted to grade it as "Mastered" or "Completed" without a percentage grade, but couldn't figure out how to show it as completed versus using a percentage.

As of now, there is no consideration for customizable grading scale. For the Weighted Grade Scale System as shown on the Donna Young website, one can convert the point system (1-4 points for the lab reports for example) to letter grade, and then to percentage, then to weighted percentage grades.
