Assignment Statistics
Although this is listed in the feedback types section in assignment setting, this is not an actual way to mark - rather it just provides extra information to students. If enabled, the student will be shown a histogram of marks across the class, and statistics such as mean and standard deviation.
The statistics will be visible to the student when they can see the grade column for the assignment regardless of whether they have a grade so, if using this without blind marking enabled, you may wish to consider hiding the grade column until after the assignment has been marked
Note that, for data protection reasons, this will not be shown where there are fewer than 10 assignment submissions.
Online Submissions only
