Statistics for individual assignments

Marty Briggs

Before the grade book change I was able to see the average, median, mode, high, and low for each assignment. Now I don't know where it is. I have looked at all of the settings and can't find it anywhere. It was really helpful, so I hope it hasn't been removed.

I found the place for averages for assignments. It's on the assignment page. However, I can't find where the statistics for assessments are shown. Please help!

Hi Marty Briggs‍! Ben from the LMS team here; thanks for reaching out. In the spirit of getting the gradebook changes out as far in advance of the school year as possible, a few items, like the assignment statistics, did not make the cut for our first release. However, we would love to hear what was most useful about the feature as we look into layering in additional functionality. Feel free to message me at ben.leddy@blackbaud.com.

Teachers at our school are asking for assessment statistics to come back. It is a great tool to give students this information so that they can gauge their own progress against the test of the class.

Trudy Howard

Marty, I'm not seeing this - could you navigate me to the averages? Thanks!

Lori MacConnell

Teachers at my school are asking for these to come back, as well. It's helpful as they plan enrichment and re-teaching opportunities.

Ben Leddy

Thanks Lori. I'm happy to share that these will be returning.

Lori MacConnell

That's fantastic news, Ben. Thank you!!!

Oona McKnight

Hi Ben, Do you have any idea when these will be returning?

Ben Leddy

Oona McKnight‍ My expectation is we have them out before the end of the month.

Getting the average and median back in the grade book would be very helpful. It would be particularly useful if we could see the average and median before committing the grades. Thank you for restoring this functionality. I cannot imagine why it would disappear!

Thanks, Charles. This was one of the final pieces of our gradebook redesign, so it took a little longer to be updated to the new format. But happy to share it should be out next Tuesday.
