Grading: Grade Scale Settings

Set a Default Grade Scale in your classes so that you do not need to manually select one each time you create an assignment. To set a default grade scale, follow these instructions:

1.  Select Gradebook in the left menu of the Course Profile.

Note:  Use the Numeric Grade Scale for all graded items, so that students can view the number grade received, not the letter grade.

For example, this is what a student sees when Numeric is used:

This is what a student sees when another grade scale is used:

4.  Make sure that the O'Dowd Scale is set in the Final Grade Settings, then click on Save Changes.
