Hello

I am using moodle 2.1.1 and have 2 grading problems

1) I want to grade my students using the following formula

Assignment: 60%

Class Tests : 4o%, i successfully added the grade categories and grade items but dont know how to add weightages to these categories

2) i want to give grace marks to my students who are (-2) the passing exam. for example, if i set passing marks 60/100 and he/she obtained 58/100, i would like to pass them

can or how  i set this in  moodle?

thanks for your help

Hi Fouzia,

I would setup your gradebook something like this:

In terms of a pass mark, you could adjust the 'Grade to pass' to be 58 for the major assignment. From a moodle perspective, I think it just highlights a certain colour for pass and fail (you'd need to confirm) - other than that, you could simply adjust your grade manually to be 60 where appropriate.
grade to pass
