Melody's Case
So, if you remember from the table above and copied below, Melody had two items unscored or excused, one in each category. The result was that the overall course grade percentages for her graded items increased in value, as shown in this table. *Note that these percentages are not category weights, but course grade percentages, that is, the product of an item weight and a category weight: *
Student | Item 1.1 | Item 1.2 | Item 1.3 | Item 1.4 | Extra Credit Item | Item 2.1 | Item 2.2 | Item 2.3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Joe | 15% | 15% | 15% | 15% | 6% | 16% | 12% | 12% |
Melody | 20% | 20% | 20% | - | 6% | - | 20% | 20% |
Francis | 60% | - | - | - | 6% | 40% | - | - |
Roderick | 100% | - | - | - | 6% | - | - | - |
