Understanding grade schemes
Grade schemes
A grade scheme is a way of organizing users’ performances on grade items into levels of achievement. A grade scheme can include any number of achievement levels. Each achievement level has its own range of acceptable grades and a symbol, such as a numeric value, letter, or text description, to represent it. You can create your own grade schemes or use schemes set up by your organization.
| Grade scheme | Example |
|---|---|
| Letter | F, D, C, B, A, A+ |
| Numeric | 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 |
| Text | Below Expectations, Meets Expectations, Exceeds Expectations |
