Point+Tracker

Blackboard doesn't make it easy to see how a student can succeed in the long run. A student may be failing the course in the present, but passing (even getting an A) is often possible because of how things are calculated.

If you have a student who is concerned about what their potential grade will be for the class, you can send them the below document (Point Tracker) along with the Potential Grade Calculation Worksheet. The worksheet will auto calculate their potential grade based on the information they provide.

When sending this to your student, include the following directions:


 * 1) In Blackboard, find the Grades tab in the SCN 400 course
 * 2) Locate the "Total Points" column
 * 3) Download and open both documents (Point Tracker; Potential Grade Calculation Worksheet).
 * 4) Follow the direction on the Potential Grade Calculation Worksheet and use the Point Tracker and Blackboard to find the required information listed
