Enter grades
Goals:
This guide explains the difference between the points of an activity and the points of the Grader report. You will learn how to enter points in courses using the "Assignment" and "Lesson" activities as an example.
Difficulty: easy
Valid from Moodle version 4.5
Important information about grading activities
Assessments should always be entered into the activity first. Corrections or adjustments of the points – e.g. in the course of a hand-in discussion – can be entered in the "Grader report" of the course afterwards and thus overwrite the points of the activity.
Using the activity "Assignment" as an example, we will now demonstrate how to enter points correctly.
Grade the assignment
Click on the tab ”Submissions” to view all submissions in the grading table or click on the button "Grade” to jump straight to the first student‘s assessment in a single view mode. Further information can be found in the guide Create and grade assignment.
In our example, we would like to use the "Submissions" overview for grading. Therefore, first click on the tab "Submissions". In the next step grades of individual students should be entered.
Grade assignments with qick grading
If not already active, it is recommended to activate the "Quick grading" checkbox. This option allows you to assign grades (and outcomes) directly in the submissions table.
Now enter the points in the row of the students. Feedback can also be added. Overwritten fields are intially automatically highlighted in orange. Save the override below with the "Save" button.
Confirm the changes
Then click on "Continue" to return to the overview.
View grades
The changed grades can now be viewed in the overview and, if necessary, changed by repeating the last steps.
Overwrite grades
Grades can also be overwritten directly in the "Grader report". This means that grades that have already been entered remain visible in the assignment. However, the overwritten grades is always used to calculate the final grade. Overwriting the original grade is useful, for example, if the grade has been improved.
To do this, navigate to "Grader report" via Grades and switch to edit mode in the top right-hand corner. Individual grades can now be overwritten. Save the changes with the "Save changes" button.
Note: Once grades have been overwritten, they can no longer be changed in the assignment. If grades are to be changed directly in the assignment, it is necessary to reset the overwriting. You can find more information in the guide Reset overwritten grades.
Tip: It is also possible to enter feedback when overwriting grades. To do this, call up the "Edit grades" field via the "..." action menu next to the grade. This process is shown in more detail in the "Edit grade" step.
View the effects of the overwriting in the assignment
To see the effects of the overwriting, we are switching back to the assignment. Click on the assignment and then on the tab "Submissions".
In the "Final grade" column, the points overwritten in the submissions overview are displayed. The points in the submissions overview or the "Final grade" column are used for any grade calculation.
In this example, Falbala Muster originally only had 46 points and received feedback that the work should be revised. She was able to improve the work and was therefore able to receive a better grade, which was overwritten by the teacher.
Grade lessons
As second example for a grade overwriting the lessons grading is shown.
First, call up the corresponding lesson in your course and select the "Reports" tab. Then click on "Show all course grades".
Lessons grade overview
You are in the Grader Report. Now you can rate each lesson individually in a point range from 0–100. Confirm your changes with "Save changes".
Note: If you would like to add more detailed feedback to an assigned grade, click on the three dots next to the score and select "Edit grade" from the options menu. This is described in the next step.
Edit grade
In this overview, you can overwrite the grade and add more detailed explanations or comments in the HTML text field "Feedback". Do not forget to confirm with "Save changes" afterwards.
