Online Assessments

Currently not, although it is a nice idea and one that we could look at later on. How would you want it to show in the gradebook though? And what would happen if a student constantly got below the required grade?

From the teacher page, click on the class you wish to edit and then click on gradebook. Then follow of either of the 2 sets of instructions below:

To edit marks for 1 student:
Click on the name of a student in the markbook
Type in new scores in the box provided (below each question)
Click on 'save changes' at bottom of screen

To edit marks on one question for the whole class:
Click on the title of the assessment you wish to edit (in the gradebook table)
Click on the icon with 3 lines (next to the search icon) in the bar of the relevant question
Type in new scores for each student
Click on 'save changes' at bottom of screen

From the gradebook, select a student (or students) and click the button ''Give Extension''. From here you can set new dates for which the chosen students now have to complete the assessments you choose.

Once you have set the assessment then go to the properties icon of that assessment from the main home page. Click on advanced options and change the number of attempts allowed.

When your cursor is in the answerbox, click the yellow arrow key to open the maths editor. Now you can enter any maths symbol you like.

Once a student has completed and submitted the assessment then the assessment will fall into the students ''Review'' section and they can then practise the questions as many times as they wish.

If you wish to reset the score in the gradebook back to zero for any particular student then click on the gradebook to see the answers the student gave and then click the ''Clear attempt'' button so the student can redo the assessment from scratch.

Yes - if the student has used the working out pad for any question then when you view the student answers you will also see a link to the working out that the student has done.

The secret code allows you to determine which string of keys a student needs to type in whilst viewing their mathster homepage in order to access the secret games section.

For example, if you decide that class x needs to type ''I love Maths'' to access the games then add this to the secret code and then let it slip to students that they may wish to try typing this whilst doing their homework.

Games will change regularly and you can change the code as frequently as you wish.
