After a digital exam, a few tools help you grade, understand what the class knows, and plan what comes next. You reach them from the exam's results page, and from the Recent results panel on the home page.
- Check open answersThe AI suggests a score and a note; you decide.
- Class insightsWhat the class knows, and where it struggled.
- Fix the scoringTo accept another answer, or cancel a question.
- What comes nextFocused practice, personal feedback and a review lesson.
Grading open answers
Check open answers on the results page opens all of the exam's open answers on one page, question by question. It shows when the exam has open answers, with how many are waiting for a score. You also get there from the tag next to the exam on the Analytics page (for example, 3 open answers to check), and from a student's attempt window.
For each answer, choose a score (0, Half or Full, or another), write A note to the student and click Save. AI suggestions for all the waiting answers suggests a score and a note for each answer, by the sample answer and by the grading guide if you wrote one. The AI only suggests: save a suggestion with Save the suggestion, or all of a question's suggestions with Save all the suggestions. The students' names aren't sent to the AI.
Class insights
Class insights opens a page that shows what the class's answers tell:
- The exam in numbers: the Class average, how many Finished, the Hardest question, and how many Open answers to check are waiting.
- What the AI sees in the class: click Analyze the class, and the AI reads the answers without names and sums up what the class knows, where it struggled, which mistaken ideas recur, and what to do in the next lesson.
- The questions: a card for each question, hardest first or as in the exam, with its level (Hard for the class, Partly understood or Went well), its Average score and, for a choice question, Who chose what.
- Strong vs. struggling: for each question, how the top quarter of the class did against the bottom quarter. A Reversed question, where the strong ones did worse, is also listed at the top of the page under Questions worth checking: it's usually a correct answer marked by mistake, or misleading wording.
- The class by how they did: three groups, Needs support (under 55%), On the way (55% to 79%) and Excelling (80% and up).
Fixing a question's scoring
The card of a multiple-choice question with one correct answer, or of a true/false question, has Fix the scoring. Choose who gets the question's points: whoever chose one of the answers you check (to count another answer as correct, or to swap the correct one), or Everyone who saw the question (it's cancelled). Click Update the scores, and the whole class's scores in the question update at once. The exam itself doesn't change, and Undo the fix takes the fix back.
What to do with it
- Practice on what the class found hard: Create practice creates a new exam, and the studio opens with Practice with AI, its What to practice already filled in with what the class struggled with. Change it if you like, then click Create questions. The original exam doesn't change.
- Personal feedback to each student: Write feedback opens a page with a card for each student who finished. Write feedback for all, or Write with AI on one card, drafts a short note: a strength, what to work on and a good word. Read, edit and save; students see it with their results, when the exam's settings show them their results.
- A review lesson: Plan the lesson opens a page where you choose the Lesson length (45 or 90 minutes) and click Plan a lesson. The AI plans a lesson with goals, an opening, re-teaching, practice and an exit ticket. Print it or copy it.
