When you first sign up for Formative, the default score threshold will reflect a traditional grading framework (aka "Standard system score threshold colors"):
Changing Score Thresholds
Paid Teacher/School & District License users can change these default thresholds on the Profile Settings page by clicking "My Account" on the left side menu and selecting "Settings."
From there, you have the ability to adjust score thresholds in the following ways:
Change the color for each score range
Remove score ranges
Add additional ranges
Adjust each individual range of scores
Adjust category titles
Don't forget to click 'Save' at the bottom of the screen when you're done updating your score thresholds.
To change the color of a threshold, click on the current color block and select from the displayed menu:
*Please note that at this time, all ranges must have a minimum score of 0 and a maximum score of 100.
Custom Score Threshold vs. Standard System Score Threshold
Once you have changed your thresholds and clicked "Save", these changes and the color coding chosen will take affect in the following instances:
View Responses page (teacher view)
Formative cards with total scores shown (both student and teacher views)
However, the standard system score threshold colors will override any custom colors defined by the teacher in the following instances, that are mostly in the student view while they are taking an activity:
Activity progress bar
Score pill in each question block
Checkmark animation
Correct/incorrect UI (after correct answers are returned)
*Please note that administrators at schools/districts with a School & District license have the ability to override score thresholds on shared common assessments.
