The DepEd-Compliant Gradebook That Handles Transmutation Automatically
Filipino teachers spend hours each quarter computing transmuted grades from Written Works, Performance Tasks, and Quarterly Assessments — then manually filling Form 138. OpenEduCat applies the DepEd transmutation formula automatically, weights WW/PT/QA at 25/50/25, and generates a Form 138-format report card in one click.
Grades 1–10 (Junior High School) and Grades 11–12 (Senior High School) · Department of Education (DepEd), Philippines
Assessment Component Weights
As defined by Department of Education (DepEd), Philippines
Written Works
Written exercises, long tests, unit tests, essay writing. Covers the "knowing" and "understanding" levels of the content.
Performance Tasks
Projects, skills demonstrations, experiments, oral presentations, multi-media output. The largest component because it shows the "doing" and "creating" dimensions.
Quarterly Assessment
The quarterly examination covering all competencies for the grading period. Administered at the close of each quarter.
DepEd Transmutation Formula Built In
The formula max(65, 60 + raw_pct × 0.4) is enforced by the engine — no student ever receives below 65 on the transmuted scale. This non-linear floor cannot be accidentally misconfigured because it is coded directly into the calculation, not a configurable threshold.
