Multiple Examiners Grading
This article helps you use Multi-grader on a quiz: from the Batch Grading page, share grading work by question or by examinee via email or a password-protected link.
Overview
Multi-grader builds on Batch Grading. Choose Grade by question or Grade by examinee as the shared grading mode, then invite graders by email or with a password link. Email sharing can assign a range to each grader. Password sharing uses one link and an access password.
Use Cases
- Different teachers grade different questions. Share by-question ranges.
- Homeroom teachers grade their own class. Share by-examinee assignments.
- Use Custom filter by department or class, then send each teacher the matching link.
Feature Access
1. Open Batch Grading for the quiz.
2. Click Multi-grader in the top-right of the page.
Tip: If you only need responses from one department or class, click Custom filter first, then open Multi-grader.
Choose a Grading Method
Before sharing, choose how graders will work after they open the link:
- Grade by question: graders switch questions and score matching answers.
- Grade by examinee: graders switch examinees and score that person's items.
Share by Email
Email sharing lets you set a range for each grader and customize the message and style.
1. Select Share by email.
2. Add graders. You can:
- Bulk add grader emails
- Add from Contacts
3. Set the grading range for each grader. If you do not set a range, the default is all data.
4. Optionally customize the email content.
5. Click Customize email style to open the style dialog. Fill in the email subject as shown in the prototype.
6. Send the emails.
Remove a Grader
1. Find the grader in the list.
2. Click Delete.
3. Confirm in the second dialog. Confirm removes the grader; Cancel keeps the person on the list.
Share with a Password Link
Password sharing uses one link for a group of graders.
1. Select Share with password (password link).
2. Set a password.
3. Set a password hint to help graders remember it.
4. Copy the shared link and send it. Graders must enter the password after opening the link.
Filter by Department or Class Before Sharing
