ELTT has been assisting\u00a0our friends in the <a title=\"Who are we? \/ Pwy ydym ni?\" href=\"http:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/eltt\/staff\/\">LTE team<\/a>\u00a0on a new Turnitin and Grademark FAQ resource,\u00a0along\u00a0with the MEDIC eLearning team \u2013 a blog post will follow on that soon. Plus, all of us in those teams have\u00a0been working in one way or another on\u00a0the Learn Plus project, which we will also blog about very soon.<\/p>\n<p>The first two FutureLearn badged MOOCs of the year have now finished, so ELTT are working on the next two at the moment &#8211; with Modern Languages and Healthcare. These are brand new, and we are very much looking forward to launching them. In addition, Gethin\u2019s been working with Andy Lloyd and Oxford Brookes on an Assessment Project related to\u00a0feedback, and I gave a talk (in Welsh \u2013 thanks Robin Hughes for the instant translation!) to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cardiff.ac.uk\/pcutl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PCUTL<\/a> participants about the use GradeMark.<\/p>\n<p>But now onto something of a technical post&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We had a question recently (from the PCUTL session) about weighted columns in the Learning Central Grade Centre. The question was: can you set up a new column for calculating an overall score for two separate assignments, each weighted differently?<\/p>\n<p>The answer is yes you can! For example, you can set up a weighted column for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Two or more learning central assignments;<\/li>\n<li>Two or more Turnitin assignments;<\/li>\n<li>A combination of Turnitin and Learning Central assignments (for individual and group submission for example);<\/li>\n<li>You can also bring in scores from the group tools (wikis, blogs, journals etc ) and add them to the weighted column.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I\u2019ve created a video showing exactly how to do this. The only thing to mention is that obviously you should create the\u00a0assignments themselves first, so that they are available for you to select them for the new column. Plus,\u00a0if you want the new column to be the one the students see as a total for the module, you need to click on the Chevron next to the column title, and choose\u00a0\u201cselect as external grade\u201d.
