Giving factor to an exam
You can give a factor to a Quiz (exam) or Assignment directly in the grader report, without changing the original grades in the grade item itself (such as quiz, assignment, etc.)
How to give a factor in Moodle?
1. On the course website, click "Grades" in the top menu.
2. In the next window, select “Gradebook setup” in the “Grader report” dropdown menu, on the top left.
3. In the row of the grade item, click "Edit" and then “Edit Settings”
4. On the next page, click in the “Show more...” link in the “Grade item” section
5. In the “Offset” field, write the points to be added as factor
6. To finish, click on the "Save changes" button at the bottom of the page.
The factor points will be added to the grades, up to the maximum grade set in the item.
For example, If a 3 point is set in the "offset" field:
-
for a student who received a 90 on the exam, the updated grade will be 93
-
for a student who received a 98 on the exam, the updated grade will be 100
