The total points for students is different in the gradebook from what students see. Students see a grade that is approximately 10 points lower than what the gradebook shows. Why is this and how can it be changed?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@plledos There may be one or more scored assignment that is hidden from students. If some scores are hidden from students, there will be an icon of an eye with a slash through it indicating some of its scores are hidden. The same icon will be next to the totals in the Total column if hidden scores are causing teachers and students to see different values.
Select Post Grades from that column's triple-dot options menu.

Actually this did not solve the issue. The grade book shows the The assignments (50% of grade) as 100% and the learning activities (50% of grade as 99.36 giving her a total of 99.68%.
However, when the student looks at her grades, it shows Learning activities as 99.36% and assignments as 100% for a total of 89.5%
There are no hidden grades in the gradebook.
See attachments for images of that is shown both in the gradebook and in the student's grades.
That is a surprising set of screenshots, @plledos . The only way that I could get something similar to happen in my own testing in student view was by unchecking the box "Calculate based only on graded assignments" in a setup with more assignment groups than your screenshots show. Perhaps that is what your student has done. There are screenshots about this checkbox in the student guide to using the gradebook.
I notice that the teacher screenshot you posted has an exclamation indicating some assignment group(s) have 0 points possible. You might double check the assignment groups weight in Assignments.
