Set up criteria-based assessment mode

Define the overall assessment criteria

Choose the assessment mode from the drop-down menu among the following options:

• Global Assessment. Standard assessment where only an overall grade is calculated for the whole submission.

• Criteria-based Assessment. Advanced assessment that adds, on top of the overall grade, a grade per assessment criterion, based on the criteria assessed across the different questions

You can then enter several assessment criteria by adding them one by one.

Once you have entered all the assessment criteria of the exam, you should see this:

Set up the grading rubrics on these criteria

You can set up the grading rubric of each question based on these overall assessment criteria. This is what allows points to be assigned on the different criteria.

When you create a criterion in a question’s grading rubric, you can:

1. pick a criterion from the exam’s assessment criteria you have already entered

2. add the assessment instructions for the chosen criterion: these are grading instructions specific to the question

3. set the total number of points assessed by this criterion on the question
