I'd like to see the colour coding on the learning mastery Gradebook be customizable. Currently, we have the option of customizing the mastery level (we set it at 5 on a 7 point scale), but not the colours.

When viewing the Learning Mastery Gradebook, there are five colour distinctions:

Extending = dark green
Proficient = light green
Developing = yellow
Emerging = orange
No Demonstration = red

The issue currently is that a student who receives a level 5, which is a mastery level, have their assignment categorized as yellow which is "developing." Since we set 5 as mastery, it should read as proficient. Similarly, a level 4 which is only one level away from mastery shows up as red which is "no demonstration"

Carly, according to How do I customize learning mastery ratings for an account? , admins can customize not only the names of the ratings but also the color associated with each one. Would you please check and confirm?

Thanks for this, Stefanie. I'll have to find out who at our school has Admin powers. Do you know if changing the colours would mean every department/teacher would also have to use the same?

Carly, this customization can be accomplished at the account- or sub-account level so as to provide a consistent experience for students across all of their courses—so yes, schools wishing to change how colors display to students would want to organize its sub-accounts in this manner so that different departments can use different colors if that is the desired goal. Otherwise, the school can customize its colors at the account level, in which case every course would use those colors.

We appreciate that you are investigating this solution for your school, and look forward to hearing the result.

Thanks!
