Is it possible to enter a letter grade in the gradebook or an assignment instead of using the existing numerical system? Is there a way to create an equivalent letter grade scale to the numerical scale?
any advice would be helpful!

Go into the course you want to add the scale to and in the admin panel you will see a link for ... scales
If you want to add this scale across the whole site you will have to hack the database entry. It's very simple to do but if you are lost with databases then I suggest you don't even think about it!
Let us know.

This is GREAT! Thanks for the info--- I got it working. Now.... It's not that I will be doing it, but I am THINKING about it---- How would I go about having our grade scale be set up across the whole site? You said it's simple... I won't do anything that will screw it up b/c I don't want to screw ourselves up--- it just would be nice to know. Would you mind giving instructions?

Sorry - I've had too much to drink
Search the forums - if nothing appears here within 12 hours-or-so I will post a sober answer ... hic
Thanks for all your replies.... and Darren, glad you sobered up to provide the additional forum discussions! /
Real quick-- I have one more questions (i hope only one more)
is there a way to have a final grade posted or inserted from the professor? Possibly you guys were stating this and I am just missing it. Right now, my team and I are manipulating it by having an assignment called "Final Grade." Of course, the student will have access b/c it is an assignment, but there won't be anything for them to do. The grading will be done by the professor and he'll just grade it as the official final grade. In the grade book the column is called Final grade and the student see their grade.
This is fairly easy and simple, but on the creation side it gets time consuming, especially if you are doing it for EVERY SINGLE CLASS! ---- is there another way????
I'm asking this also, just in case we have a course that does not have assignments listed in Moodle... the grades won't be there to calculate. However, we will want the final grade to appear.--- Any suggestions?
Thanks!
