Exam Marking

 Marking

For multiple choice questions

The marking scheme can be as simple or as complex as you need.

The simple method is to simply award 1 point for each correct answer and 0 for all incorrect answers. Then set your pass mark as a percentage on the whole exam.

To give weight to answers, you can give more points to correct answers. You can also mark answers with a negative score. This allows certain questions to be an automatic fail for the whole exam.

For text answers

You can provide details for the maker on how this question should be marked under the Marking Notes button. This will be available to the marker when they are reviewing the answers.

You also need to set the maximum number of points available.

Once the exam is complete, a notification will appear on the dashboard for the marker. Clicking this will display a list of the exams they can score and audit.

Once a score is provided and confirmed by a marker, the exam might be passed for auditing. Here another staff member will review the answers and scores provided and confirm or adjust the scores.

Both markers and auditors are able to put internal feedback on each question to explain their decisions.

Answers Per Venue

This feature allows the question and answers to be bespoke for certain venues within your organisation. This allows for relevant answers to be shown to staff while still using the same exam and same marking scheme.

Note; only the text can be edited. The number and scores on each answer cannot be changed and all questions will be asked to all staff.

To change the text, simply enter new text and click Save. To remove the bespoke text for this venue, simply delete everything from the text box and click Save.

Note: the venue switcher in the top right of the screen chooses which venue you are editing the text for. To edit multiple venues simply edit the first, click save. Then change venue using the venue switcher in the top right and edit the answers again.
