The standards-based Assignment Grades page allows you to enter standards-based scores for students by semester, cycle, and course section throughout the cycle. For each assignment, you enter scores for all associated standards, so an assignment will often have multiple scores. The scores are converted into a standard 100%-based (i.e., regular) grade for the course.
Grades > Assignment Grades
The standards-based Assignment Grades page is displayed if you select a course section that is using standards-based grading. The page is automatically displayed instead of the regular Assignment Grades page. If you change between a standards-based course section and a category-based (i.e., regular) course section, the appropriate page loads.
❏ Select the semester, cycle, and course section, and click Retrieve Data.
❏ By default, all assignments for all students are displayed. To view a specific set of information, make one or more of the following selections:
❏ In the Standard field, select a standard to view data for only one standard. Or, select All Standards to view all standards associated with each assignment.
If you filter by a standard, the following applies:
• If an assignment has multiple associated standards, only the selected standard is displayed under the assignment heading.
• If an assignment is not associated with the selected standard, the assignment is not displayed in the grid.
❏ In the Assignment field, select the assignment for which you want to enter scores. You can select one assignment or all assignments.
❏ In the Due Date field, enter a date if you want to view only assignments that are due on or after that date.
❏ In the Student field, select the student for whom you want to enter scores. You can select one student or all students.
The students and assignments are displayed according to your selections.
For each assignment, the associated standards are displayed as set up on Settings > Administer Assignments. Scores are entered for each standard, so an assignment may have multiple scores.
❏ Enter the scores in the fields provided.
❏ The Valid Standards Score Range field above the grid displays the range of valid scores for the course. Scores must be entered according to this range.
❏ When scores are entered or changed, the table cell turns grey to indicate that the score was changed but not yet saved. Once the scores are saved the cell is no longer grey.
❏ Only numeric scores can be entered. However, the following codes can be entered in place of a score:
• I - Incomplete
• M - Missing (If a student has an assignment grade of M, the grade is bypassed.)
❏ The following codes can be entered as properties of the score entered:
• L - Late
• R - Re-do
• X - Excluded
HINT: Type and save the code first. Then add the score.
If you type one or more of these codes for a score, an icon is displayed when you click Save to indicate the properties associated with the score. The icon displays the code (I, L, M, R, or X).
NOTE: The code will be applied to all standards for the assignment, even though it is entered for one standard.
Codes I and M can be updated with a numeric score as needed. However, you cannot remove codes L, R, and X from the score field. Instead, you must open the Grade Properties dialog box from the Student Assignment Grades: Standards- Based page, update the properties, and save the changes.
❏ Scores can be mass entered, mass excluded, mass replaced, or mass deleted. For more information, view the online Help for this page.
