To allow for some wiggle room, we have the trend difference threshold set to 1%. That is why it is possible for a student to have an overall mark of A in the class and still be trending down. When your score is high, one missed assignment will cause your grade to trend down. This could all change depending on the next couple of assignments, though. The scores at the beginning really set the stage for the trend. The trend is down even though we've seen some leveling out lately. We compare that number against the average of the last four overall scores (64.9 + 65.5 + 67.5 + 67.9) ÷ 4 = 66.4 and we can see that 63.5 is less than 66.4, so this grade is trending down. Using our algorithm (linear regression), we can predict that the next value will be 63.5%. Therefore, the first of the overall scores will be 74.3% because 26 ÷ 35 is 74.3%. His overall scores will be calculated by adding up all the points earned, dividing that by adding up all the points possible, and multiplying that by 100. Nick is taking Algebra and has the following scores on his assignments: This difference tells you how far away the next number is from the slope or trend of the previous scores. It takes in a range of numbers that are ordered in a specific sequence, then predicts what the next score is going to be and returns the variance or difference between what the range of scores should be and what the predicted next score is. Linear regression is a fancy name for prediction. To be exact, we use either the past 10 overall scores, or the past 25% of overall scores, whichever has the greater number of scores to analyze. The trend uses a linear regression algorithm to predict what the next overall score for the student will be based upon the historical performance of the student. If you hover over an individual assignment or overall score, a popup will give you more information for that specific item. Each blue point on the graph represents the overall score on that date as an average of all assignments up to that point.

When you click the icon, you can see the full graph:Įach gold point plotted on the graph represents a specific assignment score. It is very easy to see how a single missed assignment can greatly impact the overall score and trend of a student's performance. The overall trend serves as an indicator of the overall performance in the gradebook and how assignments over time affect the overall grade. To see the detail, simply click on the icon and you will be presented with a graph showing both the overall trend and each individual assignment score. This trend is especially valuable to students, parents, and educators because it can be used as a tool to help the student see how their performance is affected by the scores of their assignments. If you hover over the icon, text will display to inform you of the predicted future overall score.
