Hi All,
I hope someone out there has an idea for this issue or perhaps can point me in a good direction. I think I have tried just about everything.
Our organization grants continuing education credits for completing face to face sessions, and in the future completing online learning courses.
We would like to develop a report that shows the courses a person has completed and the Continuing Educaiton Credits. e.g. 1.0, 2.0 , 30.
We tried putting a custom field into botht he course and f2f session activities called CEU credits, but the problem with that is that the credits appear on the reports regardless of student status.
Becasue percentages are not really useful to us, we are now thinking taht it might be a better approach to use the letter grades feature, and just translate a letter grade to a meaning ful CEU credit.... For example, if they pass (complete) a course they would get a 3.0 and if the fail they would get a 0 for a "letter". Regretfully there seems to be no way to get letter grades into any Totara reports.
So the next best option would be to change the passing score to a course to being anything greater than 1 and make the courses out of 1-3, so essentially the same as the letter appraoch but we would mess with the course pass fail and grading formulas. This is sort of working for us, but it seems that Totara reports always add a % sign after the course score so if we change the title of the column to CEU Credits it still looks funny to see something like 3%.
Any ideas? My real wish would be some way to bring letter grades into the report, that would be sweet.
