Grades
Moodle offers a very flexible reporting tool for grades. When you combine the
ability to customize grading scales with Moodle's extensive grading tools, you have a
powerful way to view the progress of your students. As a teacher, you can categorize
graded activities, assign ranges to letter grades, use weighted grades, and either
hide grades from students or reveal grades to students. If Moodle doesn't have the
reporting capabilities that you want, you can download grades in text-only or Excel
format and use a spreadsheet to chart and analyze them.
Anything that can have a scale applied to it can be graded: forums, assignments,
quizzes, lessons, workshops, and more.
Remember from the previous section on Scales that ratings can be
assigned by both teachers and students. A rating is a grade, so this means
that you can have students grade each other by allowing them to rate
each other.
Viewing grades
To access grades, select the course whose grades you want to see, and then select
Grade administration | Grader Report. This displays a summary of the grades for
that course, as shown in the following screenshot:
