Hello, 

I have the following situation: 
In a course, I have a number of assignments. Each assignment gets a certain number of points 

The assignments are grouped in categories. 
For the students to pass, they need to meet the requirement in the category. The requirement is 50% of the total points in that category. 

I have tried the 50% as a prerequisite within the course. There it works fine. 

But how to setup the 50% in the grade report: I see the activities grouped into categories, but where do I put the 50% requriement?

Any tip highly appreciated, 
Claudia

You might need to create a grade book "calculation" for what you desire. I can't write it for you right now, but the logic is "if any category score is less than 50%, the final grade is a zero."

If you already set up the gradebook category, you could consider doing the following:

Set the aggregation method to Natural for the category --> This will result in displaying the total max points score that can be achieved for the category and the student's grade as derived from that (Sum points achieved / Max points possible), which comes back as a number, but can be displayed as a percentage (source: https://docs.moodle.org/403/en/Grade_aggregation#Natural).

If you know what the max points value for the category is, you'd be able to use max points / 2 as a value for the passing grade on that category. In the example above, that would be 15 points out of a possible 30.
 
For the student, their score will be displayed as follows:

or:

This should do the trick, I'd guess.
