Grades
It would be great to have a user friendly slider in the gradebook to easily slide grades up and down. Here is an example of a mortgage calculator.
Mortgage Calculator - Canadian Mortgage App
It has the kind of slider I am suggesting for shifting the weights of assignments. That would be a neat way to have the assignments and exams all linked to a bunch of sliders that add up to 100%.
I would use it to easily design and experiment with different weights.
I could also dynamically change weights during the course if I wanted (but only if the class agree of course) to say…. bump up their grades and reduce the weight of say … something where everyone did very poorly.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for bringing your idea to the Brightspace Community! I think there's a lot of potential for something like this being integrated in the Brightspace platform in the future, so I'm going to recommend you head on over to the Product-Idea Exchange (PIE) and submit this thought!
You can access PIE through the "Resources" tab at the top of the page here, and learn more about what it is and why we use it in the article I've attached below:
Thanks again,
Owen
