[New Quizzes] Please change "Fudge Points"
When faculty make an *adjustment* to an exam grade, for instance adding 5 points to everyone's score, at the bottom of the students report of the exam, a phrase shows up for the faculty member that says "Fudge points" and has 5 points listed next to it. That phrase really irks me because it looks like I am "fudging" the results of the exam. Students see it as well when they look over their exam.
Fudging is another word for CHEATING, or as defined: "Fudge (Miriam Webster)
- 1a : to devise as a substitute: "fake"
- b : falsify: fudged the figures
- 2 : to fail to come to grips with or dodge: fudged the issue
I am not "faking" or "falsifying" anything, I am making an ADJUSTMENT that I have chosen to make.
Could you please rename "Fudge points" to "Adjustment Points" = that would take care of the issue!
