Alternate Grading Methods and Feedback

Some activities (Moodle Assignments and Turnitin assignments) allow you to use a rubric or grading form to calculate a score.

For most Moodle activities, you can provide feedback using a (verbal) scale such as “unsatisfactory”, “satisfactory”, and “outstanding”.
Note: There is a number behind each custom scale value, so you will need to plan for how those values aggregate in the final grade for a course.

You can add written feedback for students to see next to their grade. For some activities (such as Assignments, Turnitin assignments, Quizzes, and Workshops) there is a field for providing written feedback when grading from within the activity. You can also enter feedback for grade items in the gradebook.

If you use the gradebook Moodle methods, grading can be very easy. If you prefer to follow your own methods for grading, it is possible, but may require extra steps and workarounds. For assistance with complex grading schemes, please contact the eLearning Department, see contact below.
