Custom Letter
Moodle provides a simple interface for defining a letter grade for both the system and course overrides. At LSU, we found that with slight code modifications, we were able to give the instructor a very precise letter grade boundary. The requirement was that the lower boundary must not round to a whole number, ie: the lower boundary for A was a strict 89.6%.
We have created an admin option to toogle Custom Percentages for letter grade boundaries.
We have added an admin option to toggle the new behavior in Site Administration -> Grades -> Letter Edit Settings
The system wide letter grade rounding adheres to the default grade item decimal points. In a course, is adheres to the course item decimal value.
Directly enter the percentages.
The view will round as appropriate.
