Step 1:

Navigate to the individual assessment page that you want to grade by clicking on the assessment card or by clicking on the assessment name in the assessments table view.

Step 2:

To begin grading, click on a student cell to display the grading options available.

Grading Option 1: Score

With a Score Assessment, you can grade the student based on an overall score as well as provide comments and attachments to the given grade. These options can be seen once a student has been selected to grade.

Enter the ratio of correct answers to total questions in the grade box. The total questions should already have been assigned when the assessment was created.

Grading Option 2: Binary

Binary Assessments have the same options as Score the only difference is that instead of assigning a value grade you set either achieved or did not achieve. For example, a test that is pass-fail or a quiz that demonstrates a "yes, no" grasp of a concept.

Simply click to toggle either the checkmark or the X depending on whether or not the student passed or failed the assignment.

Grading Option 3: Rubric

For a Rubric Assessment, you have the same options as Score where you can assign a grade, comments or attachments. In addition you can also assess the student based on the rubric that you created for this assessment.

Note: We do not support rubric-based autofilling, which means filling out the rubric will not result in the generation of an overall grade.

Click to fill in the levels which the student achieved on their assessment.

More options

• A: New Attempt: You can create multiple attempts for the student. The latest attempt will be the final mark for the assessment.
• B: Mark As: You can label an assessment under a student as “Late” or “Unsubmitted” - these do not impact the student’s grade but will create a label that will be visible.
• C: Omit: You can omit a student’s mark on this assessment from being calculated into the overall grade.

Table View

Click on the Table View button and click on a cell in the table to enter in a grade. Note that the table view only supports grade entry. In order to access more grading options (eg. comments, omit, multi-attempts) you will need to do so from the individual assessment view.

• You can also use the up or down arrows on your keyboard to quickly enter grades for multiple students. 
• To get more information about the assessment at a glance, hover over the assessment name and a tooltip will appear.
