Are you making the most of Grade Centre?

You can improve the management and security of your grades by eliminating or limiting the use of spreadsheets. Grade Centre can efficiently record assessment results throughout the semester and be used to calculate final grades. Using Grade Centre offers the additional benefit of built-in security with the logging and monitoring of data.

This enhanced security has been an important part of investigations and resolving mistakes. Grade Centre functionality includes:

• Results are automatically transferred from Turnitin, Blackboard assignments, Tests, ePortfolio, and Learn.UQ Discussion Board.
• Manual entry columns and rubrics allow coordinators to record results from hard copy assessment tasks, exams and oral presentations.
• MCQ exam results can be uploaded from the output of machine-marked papers.
• Non-standard calculations can be performed using the spreadsheet download and upload capability.
• Final grades can be calculated using Total and Weighted columns.
• Grading Schemas can be used to determine the allocation of grades 1 - 7.
• Migration of final grades to SI-net in the correct format can be performed using the SI-net merge tool (downloads Grade Centre marks to a spreadsheet in the correct format for SI-net upload) or the Upload Grades to SI-net function (directly uploads final marks to SI-net from Grade Centre).
• Results are automatically returned to students via the My Grades tool.
