Important Notes About the Grading Screen

  • Students in green indicate they clicked I'm Finished.
  • Students in red indicate questions need teacher attention. Click the hand icon next to the student name.
  • Teachers are blocked from the manually grading screen (clicking the hand) until a student clicks I'm Finished. You can manually end a student's assessment, however, they won't be able to launch it again.
