Assignment Summary Status

Immediately following the Table Options, teachers will find a list of students who have been assigned the resource.  

For each student, teachers will be able to view the submit date & time, status, and scores (points / percentage) earned. 

Final Score and Original Score will be displayed as “0” if the student has not started the assignment.

 

The All Students column can be sorted alphabetically by either first or last name by clicking on the sort icon. Additional columns, including status and final grades, are also sortable to help teachers organize student information efficiently. Reports icon located next to student's name allows to view Individual Assignment Report. 

Below each student's name, the system displays a numerical counter showing how many manually-graded questions still require teacher evaluation. As teachers assess each question, this counter automatically decreases, providing real-time feedback on remaining grading questions for each student.

Submit Date and Time

When a student submits the assignment, the date and time submitted will appear under the student's name.

Selecting a student's name will direct the teacher to the Grade By Student screen displaying the questions students have answered. 

The Original Score and Final Score both reflect points / percentage earned. When the assignment is marked graded, the Gradebook will reflect both points earned and percentage.

The Original Score is populated when teachers score the submission by entering the amount of points earned by the student on the Grading or Selected Student tabs.  

The Final Score cell allows teachers to adjust the student's final score without editing the original score.  If no final score is entered, the original score will populate in the Final Score cell automatically.  The score displayed in the Final Score cell will be the score reflected in the Gradebook and to the student (if allowed.)
