Note The settings below will allow ALL students to view the examination marks and feedback. You can not show examination scripts to only specific students, except to do perusal on appointment only. To inform only students who requested perusal of the perusal times, consider the following suggestions: 1. Create a Google form in which students indicate that they want to peruse their examination. Communicate only with the students on this list to organise the Perusal session. 2. ClickUP Self-Enrol Group: Create a Perusal Self-Enrol group where students can sign up for Perusal. The lecturer can then communicate with these students only to communicate the date of Perusal. (See steps at the bottom of this page). ## PERUSAL ON APPOINTMENT ONLY Perusal could be done on appointment with students in your office or via a Live virtual session e.g. Class Collaborate or Google Meet, where the lecturer shows the student’s assessed submission to the student. ## OPENING EXAMS FOR ALL STUDENTS TO PERUSE ### Perusal of Turnitin assignments 1.
