Saving Question Comment and Mark
Exercise marks are saved using the assessment sidebar. As each section in the exercise is marked, the total is tallied as mark for the exercise. Once each marking subsection has been completed, the final exercise mark and comment can be submitted.
The comment box is used to write an optional comment about the student’s performance or can be used for internal messages / reminders to other markers.
By default, the total mark for the exercise is calculated by adding up individual marks for each section. However, the mark can be overridden by entering a new value in the field.
To submit the mark for the exercise, click the Submit Question button. This will save the mark, along with the comment and set the question as marked. With the question marked, the assessment navigation tab for the exercise at the top of the screen will turn green, signifying that the question has been marked.
In addition to regular question saving, there is the option to fail an exercise. Failing an exercise will submit each section with its current mark and the exercise with a mark of 0. To fail a question, click the fail question button. If a comment has not been entered, the comment ‘Question failed’ will be entered and saved.
