Inspera marking navigation

This guide provides the instructions on:

navigating between different tabs in Workspaces
navigating between questions while marking the same student, and
navigating between students while marking the same question.

Note that the 'sticky' technology in Workspaces allows you to navigate to different tabs while marking the same student and question.

Navigate between tabs in Workspaces

This 'sticky' navigation capacity is very useful when you need to look at a particular student's response on different tabs; for instance, mark moderation or while you are marking a response and need to provide an explanation of the mark you give for the response.

Access your test Workspaces.
Click on the Results tab.
Click on the first student on the list. The student's results on each question are displayed on the right.
Click on the Manually marked button to filter only the manually marked questions.

Click on a question (e.g. low-marked one Q. 6) to moderate.

Click on the Marking tab under the Grader workspace.
The same student and question that you view in the Results area is displayed.

In the same way, you can click on the Explanations area.
The same student and question will be displayed.

Navigate between students

This navigation is useful in case graders are assigned to mark some questions in a question set.

Access your test Workspaces.
Click on the Marking tab under the Grader workspace.

The first student and Question 1 is displayed.

Use the filter question functionality to navigate to the question you are assigned to mark (e.g. Q. 6)
Click on the down arrow (alias Next candidate) to navigate to the next student.
Note: the screenshot displays the first student on the list, so there is only one option to move to the next student.

The same question responded by the next candidate is displayed.
Note: When you have marked the second student, the navigation will show two arrows to move forward or backwards on the student list.

Navigate between questions

This navigation is useful when you need to mark all question for each student or when you need to check each response that a student provided in their test.

Access your test Workspaces.
Click on the Marking tab under the Grader workspace.

The first student and Question 1 is displayed.

Click on the right arrow (alias Next question) to move to the next question.
If you need to go to the previous question, click on the left arrow (alias Previous question)

You will see the same student but a different question.

Auto navigation

The function Auto Navigation enhances navigation between questions or students when marking by questions or marking by students. This function is useful when marking the manually marked questions or when graders mark their assigned questions, for example, Question 9 in the sample test.

By default, this option is not activated. Graders can activate the auto navigation and:

Lock the question and move to the next student to mark the same question, or
Lock the student and move to the next question to mark for the same student.

Navigate by candidate:

In the Grader or Planner section, click on Marking.
Select Go to next candidate from the AUTOMATIC NAVIGATION WHEN SETTING MARKS drop-down menu

Note: To navigate to the next candidate, press ALT + down arrown

Click on the lightning bolt icon to disable automatic navigation.

Navigate by question

Alternatively, select Go to next question from the AUTOMATIC NAVIGATION WHEN SETTING MARKS drop-down menu.

Note: To navigate to the next question, press ALT + arrow right

Click on the lightning bolt icon to disable automatic navigation.
