Grading & Tracking Settings

Your organization can have default grading and tracking settings as well as each course can have their own settings.

Courses that you own in the Affinity LMS allow you to set custom tracking and grading settings. You can also set organization wide defaults as well for all new courses.

Course Specific Settings

To set the course specific settings, navigate to a course of interest and open the editor mode.

Once in the editor mode, press the course action button in the top right and choose Course Settings.

After choosing course settings, click the Track Settings tab.

Here you can configure a few tracking options:

• Required minimum passing percentage

• Maximum attempts per knowledge based question

• and, whether you want to allow out of order page navigation

Required Minimum Passing Percentage

This value will determine if a learner can be marked as complete for a course. When they finish the course, they must have gotten correct greater than or equal to this percentage of questions. If they fail to meet the minimum, they must restart the course and try again.

Max Number of Attempts Per Question

For each of the questions you have in a course, this value represents how many attempts a learner has to get it right. They will be able to answer incorrectly up until the maximum number of times or until they give a right answer before that maximum attempt.

Out of Order Page and Section Navigation

When this is checked, it means that a learner can go through the course content in any order they want. When it is not checked, the learner must complete each page and section in order and they can only progress to the next page or section when the previous one is fully complete.

Organization Default Tracking Settings

In the settings tab for your organization, you will find a Training Settings area. Here you can configure the default parameters for all courses. Every course will use these defaults unless there is a course specific override.
