Moodle Quiz Grade Not Showing for Students in the Gradebook

Problem


Students are not able to see their grade for that quiz and the instructor will see an eye with a line through it in the gradebook.

 

Environment


The article applies to Gustavus Moodle users.

 

Resolution


  1. Click the Quiz
  2. Click Settings
  3. Scroll to Review Options
  4. Under “After the quiz is Closed”, make sure “Maximum Marks” and “Marks” are checked.
  5. Save Changes. Students should instantly see their score in the Gradebook.
  6. Repeat for all quizzes that are not showing the grade to the student.

 

Cause


There was a recent Moodle security update (November 2023) that changed a setting for quizzes that were copied from a past course (not newly created quizzes).

Maximum Marks is a new option and it shows how many points the quiz is worth, whereas the Marks is their score on the quiz. Marks will not show unless Maximum Marks is also selected. This is a new option and is checked by default for newly created quizzes.
