View source for Student: Checking Grades

Feedback is essential for learning. Moodle allows you to track your progress and view detailed grading information from your instructors.

__TOC__

== 1. The Gradebook Overview ==
To see a summary of your performance across all subjects:
# Click your '''User Avatar''' in the top right corner.
# Select '''Grades''' from the dropdown menu.
# This opens the "Overview report". It lists every course you are enrolled in and your current total grade for each.

== 2. Detailed Course Grades ==
To see the breakdown of a specific class:
# Enter the course page.
# Click the '''Grades''' tab in the secondary navigation bar (below the course title).
# This opens the '''User report'''.

=== Understanding the User Report Columns ===
The grade table can look complex. Here is what the columns mean:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Column
! Explanation
|-
| '''Grade item'''
| The name of the assignment, quiz, or activity.
|-
| '''Calculated weight'''
| How much this assignment counts towards the final course grade (e.g., 20%).
|-
| '''Grade'''
| Your score (e.g., 85.00).
|-
| '''Range'''
| The possible lowest and highest scores (e.g., 0–100).
|-
| '''Percentage'''
| Your grade converted to a percentage (e.g., 85%).
|-
| '''Feedback'''
| Short text comments from the teacher.
|}

== 3. Viewing Detailed Feedback (Assignments) ==
The Gradebook view only shows the score and a short comment. To see full details, marked-up PDFs, or Rubrics:

# Go back to the course homepage.
# Click on the link of the specific '''Assignment''' again (the same place where you uploaded it).
# Scroll down to the '''Feedback''' section (below the submission status).

=== What to look for: ===
* '''Grade''': The final score.
* '''Graded on''': When the teacher finished marking.
* '''Feedback comments''': A longer message from the instructor.
* '''Annotated PDF''': <span style="color:green; font-weight:bold;">Highly Recommended.</span> If you see a PDF icon here named "Annotated PDF", click to open it. This is your original paper with the teacher's red pen marks, highlights, and specific notes directly on the pages.
* '''Rubric''': If a rubric was used, you will see the grid showing exactly which criteria you met and where you lost points.

== 4. Viewing Detailed Feedback (Quizzes) ==
# Open the Quiz activity.
# You will see a "Summary of your previous attempts".
# Click the link labeled '''Review''' (in the right-hand column).
# This opens the quiz in "Review Mode".
# You can navigate through the questions to see which ones you got right or wrong, and read specific feedback for each question (if enabled by the teacher).
