Gradebook-5
• Turned In – A green flag displays in the upper left corner• Late - any work that is flagged as Late will appear with a red score. There
is no formula for late work, the Late flag is simply an indication the assignment was late. Any deductions or “docking” should be done on the score and entered as such.
• Exempt -an exempt assignment will be grayed out and will not count for that student.
• Missing - missing assignments count as zero points earned. A canned report finds missing assignments in the Portal and in the Instruction Reports.
• Incomplete- assignments do not harm (nor help) the student’s grades.• Cheated - an assignment flagged as cheated will count as a zero. “Cheated”
will appear on the portal.• Dropped - the dropped flag is automatically marked if “drop lowest score”
was set on the group in Lesson Planner. As scores are entered, Campus will analyze each student’s scores and flag the score with the lowest overall percentage, thus removing it from the grade calculation.
