CourseAdmin penalties can be used both in the Assignment and in EXAM Moodle.

Using CourseAdmin penalties in the Asignment

If Use CourseAdmin penalties is checked in section Feedback types of an assignments Settings, then the grade for the assignment is automatically calculated from comments (added by the grader in the PDF editor) that are valid CourseAdmin penalty expressions, as specified in Grading an assignment.
Penalties (including page number, value, and comment, followed by their sum) are listed instead of the grade in both the Grader and Student views of a submission.
If Show CourseAdmin penalties is checked in the View/grade all submissions page, penalties are listed instead of grades there also.

The Grader and Student views of penalties differ:
- In listings and the online PDF, Graders see the comments as entered.
- Students see the processed comments (as shown in the CourseAdmin website).
- In penalty lists, Students see only legal penalties.
Note: The generated feedback PDF shows the processed comments.

Comments are listed in order of page and position. Background color is preserved.
For Graders, font color is as follows:

  Legal penalty
  No such penalty code
  Not a legal penalty

A CourseAdmin grade file may be generated by selecting Export penalties to CourseAdmin from the Grading action menu.
Only Legal penalties are included in the grade file.

If changes are made to the CourseAdmin errorcodes file, feedback PDFs can be rebuilt by selecting Regenerate feedback PDFs from the Grading action menu.

Using CourseAdmin penalties in EXAM Moodle

If field CourseAdmin assignment name is set in the exam settings, then for any question for which there is a CourseAdmin assignment, lines entered in the Manual grading Comment box are assumed to be CourseAdmin penalty expressions.
Then name of the CourseAdmin assignment should be the value of this field followed by an underscore and the slot number of the question.
The Manual grading Mark box should be left empty
On saving, the Comment box shows the penalty values and comments, followed by their sum.

The Grader and Student views of the Comment box differ:
- Graders see the comments as entered.
  Font color is as follows:
    Legal penalty
    No such penalty code
    Not a legal penalty
- Students see the processed comments (as shown in the CourseAdmin website).
  Only legal penalties are shown.
(There is a Student view mode in the grader's view of both the Review attempt and the Manual grading pages.)

Note 1: If changes are made to relevant CourseAdmin grade-parameters and errorcodes files, one must open CoursePreview in HUJI Moodle in order to load the changes.
Note 2: If anything is entered in the Mark box, it will override the grade calculated by CourseAdmin

A CourseAdmin grade file may be generated from the Manual grading page: Select some of the questions and click on Export selected questions to CourseAdmin
Only Legal penalties are included in the grade file.


Note: Whereas Moodle takes CourseAdmin assignment names and errorcodes from from the CourseAdmin preview files, the student's view of the CourseAdmin site is based on the signed files
