New Features
Added Year-to-Date Mode for Calculating Grades (Previously only in Silverlight)
Schools using Standards Based Grading in the HTML5 Gradebook can activate Year-to-Date mode to calculate grades cumulatively instead of by marking periods. For example, third marking period grades will come from assessments that took place from the first day of the school year to the last day of the third marking period.
Feature Fixes
Gradebook: Inability to Save Overridden Grades for Inactive and Withdrawn Students Has Been Fixed
Grades can be overridden regardless of a student’s status in Gradebook. Previously, some users encountered issues when saving overridden grades entered for inactive and withdrawn students.
Template Options: Corrupt Custom Template When No Name Provided Has Been Fixed
Previously, when a user created a custom template and attempted to save it without a name, a warning message appeared. After the user named and saved the template, the template became corrupt.
Reports > Custom Reporting: Error in the Filter to Select Course Levels Has Been Fixed
Previously, some users received a ‘No Matching Data’ message when using the Selected Course Levels filter for a custom report.
