Additional visual indicators
Turning on additional visual indicators on the Other card (outlined above) means that, where colors are used to indicate meaning, you also want icons to show. These indicators appear in the People and Gradebook tools to represent grades, performance, and Self assessment information.
Here's how the colors align with icons:
- Red indicates failing or poor performance and is represented by an X in colored circles and an asterisk next to scores.
- Yellow indicates OK performance and is represented by a line in colored circles.
- Green indicates good performance and is represented by a checkmark in colored circles.
- Blue indicates a student is excelling and is represented by an upwards arrow in colored circles.
