Naiku Quick Tip: Scoring CR and Essay Items

Did you know that you can score/grade constructed-response and essay questions before closing the test?

 

Quick Tip: When you have a mix of item types (MC, CR, Essay) on your test, you can start to score those extended response CR or Essay items before closing the test. As each student finishes his or her test, you can grade those items immediately for that student. Go to the Progress view page (Click on Progress). For students who have finished the test, click on Edit. This allows you to score the CR and Essay items. Once all students have finished the test, you can Close and Score the test for everyone.
