How to Interpret Your Packback Discussions Grade

Your grade is determined by a few factors, including deadlines and posting requirements set up in your community. Your Grade Report will be your best friend and easiest reference when checking your grades for each individual Packback assignment!

Take a look below at the instructional video we've created as a visual guide for you, or follow along with our written step by step instructions.

 

Components of Your Grade

Your grade is broken down by a number of components: the weekly deadline, the number of questions and responses, and (potentially) a minimum Curiosity Score per post. Your instructor determines which combination of these components work best for their expectations for the course and set them for each assignment.

  • Weekly Deadline

    Your Discussion Assignments grade is determined by a set weekly deadline. In order to earn points towards a specific Grading Period, you must post in your community before its deadline.
     

  • Number of Posts and Curiosity Score Minimum

    Your instructor will also set a posting requirement which details the number of questions and the number of responses you should be posting within each grading period. Some instructors have even set a minimum Curiosity Score that your post must reach in order to earn credit for the week.

Where to Review Moderated Posts

When in a moderated state, posts will not count towards your participation or score. If one of your posts has been moderated, you can view, edit and republish the work directly from your Discussion Posts page!

 

Remember, you will always receive an email notification if any of your posts have been moderated for violating our Community Guidelines. Clicking the link in this email will also bring you to the moderated posts page to edit and republish your assignment!
