Description
credit = sessionCredit*attendedMinutes/sessionMinutes.
Scoring rules combine points, item weights, boundaries and policies for omission, extra credit or missing items. A computed mark is meaningful only under those explicit rules; applying a rule does not establish its fairness or official status.
credit = sessionCredit*attendedMinutes/sessionMinutes.
When to use this tool
Use Attendance Partial Session Minute Credit when checking one supplied scoring contribution or policy boundary.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter attendedMinutes, sessionMinutes, sessionCredit. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read credit. Use the output convention below.
Require positive sessionMinutes, attendedMinutes in [0,sessionMinutes] and nonnegative sessionCredit. credit = sessionCredit*attendedMinutes/sessionMinutes.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| attendedMinutes | Attended Minutes | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| sessionMinutes | Session Minutes | Required. Finite number; strictly above 0. |
| sessionCredit | Session Credit | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| credit | Credit | Required. Finite number. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- This is proportional attendance credit under a supplied rule, not confirmation of participation quality, attendance evidence or entitlement to academic credit.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use the complete approved rubric and score record for an official outcome, and examine measurement quality separately.

Round each value as Math.round(value/quantum)*quantum and sum for sumOfRounded; separately round the unrounded total for roundedSum; gap is their difference.
