Using Rubrics for Marking

Teachers can mark the Group Report, Individual Report and Peer Evaluation based on the rubrics. To begin marking, go to the Marking tab and then check the respective rubric criteria on the right panel and choose the performance level. You can also change the marks awarded manually, and the awarded points will automatically update.

You can add comments for a specific criterion, unlink them from a criterion and also add overall comments.

Once the feedback has been released, the student can view the Group Report, Individual Report and Peer Evaluation along with the associated rubrics and comments.
