First week checklist

One full marking cycle, in order. Each line links to the page that explains it.

Get set up​

  • Create your account and join your school with your school's code (organisation code). Ask your school's ren. administrator for it. See Create your account.
  • Look around your home page (dashboard) and the left sidebar. See Find your way around.
  • Create a class for one teaching group, for example H2 Physics JC1 Class A. See Create a class.
  • Add your students to the class list. See Add students.
  • Invite your students, by email or with the class code. Adding students does not email them. See Invite students.

Students do not need to join first. You can upload scripts for them, for example papers done in class.

Set an assignment​

Mark​

  • Start marking. Click Start grading. Let ren. suggest marks for every script, or choose Let me mark a few myself first. See Start marking and Mark a few first.
  • Check and change marks. Go through each script, accept the suggested marks you agree with and change the rest. See Check and change marks.
  • Ask the marking chat for a second opinion on an answer. See Marking chat.

Release and review​

  • Mark each script as complete, then release results so students see their marks and feedback. See Release results.
  • Read the class report: click Build class report on the assignment page to see the class average, spread of scores and where marks were lost. See Read the class report for an assignment.
  • Look at a student's progress report before talking to a student or parent. See Student progress report.

Optional​

  • Practise first. Try the practice class with sample students. Nothing is saved.
  • Tell ren. how you mark. Add your own marking instructions and feedback style. See Your marking style.
