An Grading Type describes the type of an Assignment's grades.
The values of this enum are of type string.
We recommend mainly using assignments with grading_type points, as many systems we integrate with don't support any other grading type.
Values
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
points | The score is given out of points_possible points. |
percent | The score is set as a percentage of points_possible points. |
pass_fail | The score is set as either points_possible or zero. |
letter_grade | The score is set as a letter grade value, which is converted to a percentage point value using the grading_scale on the assignment. Canvas is really the only provider with good support for this. |
rubric | The score is based on the points_possible from the associated rubric. Canvas and Schoology supported. |
