For each score, use the Low Points and High Points fields to establish a range of possible points within each score. Or, you can assign a single point value for each score.

The fields can have up to three digits.

Example 1 (with score ranges):

Within each score, you can establish a range of possible points:

The Not Attempted score may have Low Points and High Points both set to 0, because 0 points would be awarded if the student did not attempt the skill.

The Below Average score may have Low Points set to 1, and High Points set to 10, so a student who performed below average on the skill can earn between 1 and 10 points.

The Average score may have Low Points set to 11, and High Points set to 20, so a student who had average performance on the skill can earn between 11 and 20 points.

The Above Average score may have Low Points set to 21, and High Points set to 30, so a student who had above average performance on the skill can earn between 21 and 30 points. The highest score a student could receive would be 30.

The Exceeds Expectations score may have Low Points set to 31, and High Points set to 40, so a student who had above average performance on the skill can earn between 31 and 40 points. The highest score a student could receive would be 40.

In this example, if 10 skills were scored, the student could earn a maximum of 400 points for the assignment.

Example 2 (without score ranges):

To assign a specific number of points to each score, type the number of possible points in the Low Points field and leave the High Points field blank. When you save, the High Points field will automatically be set to the value in the Low Points field.

The Not Attempted score may have Low Points set to 0, because 0 points would be awarded if the student did not attempt the skill. Leave High Points set to 0 or blank.

The Below Average score may have Low Points set to 1, because 1 point would be awarded if the student had below average performance for the skill. Leave High Points set to 0 or blank.

The Average score may have Low Points set to 2, because 2 points would be awarded if the student had average performance for the skill. Leave High Points set to 0 or blank.

The Above Average score may have Low Points set to 3, because 3 points would be awarded if the student had above average performance for the skill. Leave High Points set to 0 or blank. The highest score a student could receive would be 3.

The Exceeds Expectations score may have Low Points set to 4, because 4 points would be awarded if the student had above average performance for the skill. Leave High Points set to 0 or blank. The highest score a student could receive would be 4.

In this example, if 10 skills were scored, the student could earn a maximum of 40 points for the assignment.
