In Actively Learn you can customize grading by changing grading labels and point percentages. You can choose from a list of labels for short questions (e.g point labels, letter grades, etc.) or create your own. You can also adjust the point percentages for multiple choice and short answer responses.
The default grading bands for Actively Learn assignments are Advanced (100-91%), Proficient (90-71%), Developing (70-51%), Incomplete (50-1%), and Zero (0%).
Please note that updating the grading settings for your class will affect any past assignments you have already graded.
