Roles in Workspaces

There are two roles in Inspera Grade workspaces.

Planner: if you are the planner and you add yourself as a grader, you will see both workspaces

Grader: if you only have the grader role, you will see grader workspace.

The following menu items are available to both roles:

Overview - An overview of the status of the graders' marking and the students' marks. Columns can be added or removed for easier navigation and information provided.
Results - A detailed overview of students' results and the questions' name and status.
Marking - The marking for student submissions. Note: All marking has to be done in the marking area in Grader workspace.
Explanations - The area for providing explanations of marks on each question in a student's submission before it is sent to them.
Questions - A list of all the questions, question titles, question types and marks per question.
Candidate report (if activated during assessment creation) - Generated after marking has been completed, this area allows the marker to see the final report as students would.

Results in Workspaces

In the Results area in Workspaces, you get a more detailed view of candidates' results and the graders' marking progress.

The candidates area lists each candidate by:

Total marks: the marks from auto-marked questions and the manually marked questions when they are marked
Final marks: the total marks become final marks when they are confirmed

The questions area lists each question answered by each student by its number, name, whether it was answered or not, its marking status, marks possible, question weight, maximum marks and question type.

The responses are marked Answered or Unanswered
You can click on the manually marked or answered questions to filter

Note: When you click on the Results tab, the first student's responses are displayed on the right. If you want to view any student's responses, you can search by student ID on the candidates area.

This Results view is useful for its filtering capability and search functionality.

See the example below where the user has filtered the questions to only show the auto-marked ones.
