Running: Moodle 3.06
I have a gradebook with several categories, all with Natural aggregation. One category has two extra credit items.
Problem 1: The category total is 100. There are 10 10-point quizzes, plus two extra credit items. If the student has good grades in the 10 quizzes and also gets points for the extra credit, then the category total exceeds the max of 100 points. The site is configured to allow unlimited grades - that is the way the site admin wants it. I thought Natural aggregation would limit the maximum aggregated value to the category maximum regardless of the unlimited grades setting. Evidently not.
Problem 2: So, to fix Problem 1, I used a calculated Category Total. The formula is:
=MIN(100, SUM(CQ1,CQ3,CQ4,CQ5,CQ6,CQ8,CQ10,CQ11,CQ12,CQ14,EX1,EX2))
That works when an instructor views the grade book and views individual student grade reports. However, when a logged-in student views the grade book, the total for the calculated Category Total is 161681.00 instead of the correct value. The odd thing is that the total in the category is the same for every student.
Any ideas? Is this a bug in the way the logged-in student report calculates grades? See the attached screenshot.
