Viewing Grades

Understand how your grade is calculated, what each component contributes, and how to read your per-episode grade breakdown.

GPA Display Explanation

The Grades page (accessible from the bottom nav bar) shows your overall performance. The dashboard grade summary widget provides a quick snapshot.

The letter grade shown is the average across all completed episode grades. "Pending" means grades where either the homework has not been graded yet or the test has not been completed.

Per-Episode Grade Breakdown

Each episode you complete has its own grade record. The grade for a specific episode combines three weighted components:

  1. Video Completion (20%)

    Binary: completed (full points) or not completed (zero). You must watch at least 90% of the video to count as completed.

  2. Homework Score (30%)

    Your score divided by the maximum possible score, weighted at 30%. This is graded by your instructor.

  3. Test Score (50%)

    Your percentage from the test attempt, weighted at 50%. Tests are auto-graded with multiple choice and true/false questions.

Maximize Your Grade -- Since tests are worth 50%, focus your study time there. But do not skip the video (20%) or homework (30%) as they are easy ways to accumulate points.
