Assign grades using flexible grading
To provide students with grades, you have to assign, edit, and post grades.
This is done on the Gradebook or from the Assessment itself.
Flexible grading
This video might still display the Details & Actions menu on the left side of the screen - it has since moved to the right hand side. Click here to see what it looks like.
Instructors want to configure the grading interface according to their preferences. In flexible grading, instructors can collapse or expand the left panel (student cards) and right panel (feedback and rubrics). To provide a better user experience, the last used state is preserved in the browser.
Navigating between student attempts and across sessions provides a more efficient experience.
For detailed steps, refer to this document.
Using rubrics
Rubrics play a critical role in the grading process for many educators. Rubrics performance level descriptions are hidden by default. Instructors can choose to display the performance descriptions as needed for grading.
The rubrics grading interface stores the most recently used display option. This means that instructors who rely on performance level descriptions when grading don’t have to turn them on each time they navigate to grade another submission. The performance level display option preference is stored on a per-user per-assessment basis.
Multiple attempts
When you allow multiple attempts, the attempt selected for display is based on the grading status and attempt aggregation model selected.
Multiple attempts is available at the top of the page.
Override grade
Click on the ellipses to display the menu and choose override final mark.
After the grade was overwritten, the original grade as well as the overwritten grade displays.
Submission receipt
The submission receipt for the selected attempt displays beneath the attempt selector.
