All other question types are worth points for participation. These questions don’t have defined right and wrong answers at this time, so learners earn full points as long as they interact with (answer) the question. Because of this, we don’t recommend using these question types for graded quizzes at this time.

2. Learners pass or fail each graded lesson

Not all lessons have to be graded. But for those that are, the grade is calculated like this: Sum of points earned / Total points possible = %. If the grade meets or exceeds the set passing percentage, the learner passes. If not, they fail the lesson .

but still go on to the next lesson.

whole course

Then the lesson grades are averaged to determine the grade for the whole course. If the grade meets or exceeds the set passing percentage, the learner passes and receives full course credit pointscredits. If not, they fail the course.Learners who pass the course receive course credit points

Note

Course credits are not associated with Continued Education (CE) credits on the platform.

4. Learners, managers, and administrators get grade reports

Right away, learners get a pop-up notification alert when they complete a graded lesson or course, letting them know if they passed or failed. Later at any time, the JUNO team can help site admins and managers download a transcript, they can view grades and download transcripts from their course dashboard. Site admins and managers can see learner grades in their own dashboards too.

Can learners retake

courses?

Learners can retake individual lessons depending on how the lesson has been set up. Learn more about setting up retakes.

If retakes are not set up, they cannot change their question answers for that lesson. (They can go back to rewatch the previous lesson once it is complete.

Regardless of retakes, learners can rewatch videos or reread the lesson before they complete the course by selecting the Complete Course button.)until the course end date. Learn more about how learners take courses.

Set up a graded course

Steps, link out

  • 1. Define grading for the course

  • 2. Define grading for each lesson

    • Graded lessons and ungraded lessons (you can have a mix)

    • Assign points to questions (basic explanation and screenshot, but link out to Create lessons doc)

Note

If you edit these grading settings after the course start date, you should recalculate grades in case learners already started the course. See Recalculate grades instructions below.

Explain how to set up this use case. I think this is a potential use case?

...

Would it be “set passing percentage to 0%” and “make all lessons ungraded?”

...

First, define grading for the course:

  1. In the Course Info tab, under Grading, set a Course Passing %.

    Insert excerpt
    REUSE - Course Passing Percentage spec
    REUSE - Course Passing Percentage spec
    nopaneltrue

  2. Set the number of Course Credits.

    Insert excerpt
    REUSE - Course credits spec
    REUSE - Course credits spec
    nopaneltrue

  3. Add a certificate to reward learners who pass. This is optional.

...

Then, define grading for each lesson. Not all lessons have to be graded. For example, you might just make a final graded quiz at the end of the course.

  1. Go to the Lesson Plan tab then Edit a lesson.

  2. Turn on the Graded Lesson toggle for graded lessons. Or turn it off for ungraded lessons.

  3. Set a Lessons Passing % for graded lessons.

    Insert excerpt
    REUSE - Lesson passing percentage spec
    REUSE - Lesson passing percentage spec
    nopaneltrue

  4. Create questions and give them a Score. This is the number of points learners earn if they answer correctly.

To confirm that the correct lessons are graded or ungraded, go to the Lesson Plan tab. There should be a Graded indicator next to any graded lessons in the list, while there is nothing next to ungraded ones.

To prevent issues with inaccurate grading, some lesson settings lock (cannot be edited) after the course starts. But you can still edit some settings that affect grading. When you do, you can should recalculate grades for any learners that already started the course.

...

In the Course Info tab, select Recalculate Grades in the top-right corner.

Set up an ungraded course

There is no “ungraded course” functionality, but you can set it up so that everyone who completes the course passes with a 100% grade.

First, define grading for the course:

  1. In the Course Info tab, under Grading, set the Course Passing % to 0. This ensures everyone “passes” the course as long as they complete it.

  2. Set the number of Course Credits to 0 if it’s worth nothing. Or you can award course credits for completing the course. This must be a whole number between 0-99. Either way, the credits will appear on the learner’s transcript.

  3. Add a certificate to reward all learners who complete the course. This is optional.

...

Then, define every lesson as ungraded:

  1. Go to the Lesson Plan tab then Edit each lesson.

  2. Turn off the Graded Lesson toggle on every lesson.

  3. Set the Lesson Passing % to 0%.

...

To confirm that all lessons are ungraded, go to the Lesson Plan tab. There should be no Graded indicators next to any lessons in the list.
