We have a faculty member that set up a weighted gradebook. She has a category called assignments and it has a weight of 20% of the total grade. in this category she has an assignment that has 4 points and is weighted to be 2.339181287% of the assignment category. Everything appears to be correct from both the gradebook and the assignment ends. BUT in her live gradebook with student grades the assignment is graded and it shows that it is weighted 0% and upon checking by manually adding points 1, or 4 the students final calculated grade does not change —showing the assignment is indeed NOT weighted or contributing to the final grade despite that it has a weight of 2.339. Please see attached images for more information.
Any thoughts ? Thanks
Manage grades view - showing assignment has 4 points and weight of 2.339
view in gradebook showing 0 weight
Side question: anyone know of a way to convine college faculty that no grading system in the known universe is accurate and/or precise enough to warrant 9 decimal places ?
