Assessment Phase

After the exam

Results the same day,

The points

Automatic marks. Teacher judgement.

Automatic points and teacher-marked points stay separate. A written answer waiting for a mark appears as pending. Questions keep the paper’s numbering, even when students saw different orders.

Written answers

Choose a level, or enter the points.

Mark written answers with a rubric level when the question has one, or enter the allowed points yourself, including zero and up to two decimal places. Add a note and save; marking history keeps earlier marks.
