Bug Found: Copying A Survey with Branching
With the Talon Survey tool, it's possible to create branching scenarios. The branching lets you skip questions that might not be relevant to some responders. We recently discovered the branching does not copy correctly when using the Import/Export/Copy Components tool. If you use this tool to copy a survey with branching, you will need to re-configure all the branches.

Assignment showing the wrong total possible points
Question:
I am grading an assignment in Angel. When I go to assign points for the assignment, it is displaying the wrong points (100 points). What is happening and how can I fix it?
Answer:
If the assignment is showing the wrong number of points, in this case 100 points. A possible option would be that it is not correctly linked to the particular assignment in gradebook. This is a dead giveaway if the assignment is showing 100 points, as 100 points is the default point total for any assignment by Angel.
To fix it, find the assignment and open up the settings. Click on the Assignment tab. In the gradebook settings, click on the dropdown and select the item in the gradebook you wish the assignment to be associated with. If you do not see the assignment listed, you may need to create it in gradebook first.

Manual override of grades in gradebook
Question:
A student has taken an assessment, in the submission manager it shows the correct number of points but in the gradebook, it is showing the student received at 0? What is causing this?
Answer:
A simple solution to this could be that manual override has been selected for this particular assignment. If you open the grade entry grid in gradebook and click on the item, it will open a pop-up that will allow you to type in the points for that assignment. In the upper right corner (see below).
If you click override calculated grade, it will allow you to put in a different grade than what was assigned to the assignment. If at some point you had manually added a score and clicked override calculated grade, it would show whatever your manual score was, instead of the score angel assigned. Even if this grade changes in the future through Angel, it will always be overridden with the score if the Override calculated grade is checked.
Now if there is only one or two individuals who had their grades overridden you can manually go in, click on each student and unclick Override calculated grade. If there are quite a few students, it might be easier for you to go in, delete the assignment in gradebook (not the assignment in the lessons tab), and recreate the assignment in gradebook. Once the assignment is linked back up to the item in gradebook, it should auto-populate the assignment with the correct scores.
