Scoring Page: Yet Another Update

Since a few people prefer to make each problem set worth the same amount of points (regardless of the number of the problems), there is a new option on the scoring page:
The "Rescale Each Problem Set Totals To" option does exactly what the name says: student scores for each problem set get recalculated to reflect the same percentage out of the new total.

Scoring Tools Updated

The Scoring Tools page was updated with a couple of new features.

As you can see from the screen shot above, there are two new options:

1. Only grand totals: this option will produce a table with total scores for students, without detailed scores for each problem set.

2. Format for import into D2L: this option makes sure that the .csv file is in the format expected by D2L. You might want to change the heading in the produced .csv file from
Online Homework Points Grade
to
[The name of D2L gradebook item] Points Grade
so that the scores are imported correctly.
