How do I grade an assignment submission in the Teacher app on my Android device?

In the Courses tab, tap the name of the course you'd like to view.

Tap the Assignments link.

Tap the name of the assignment.

Tap the Need Grading status link [1].

Note: If you want to filter submissions by a different status, tap the Arrow icon [2] and apply the filter in the Submissions page.

Locate the student's submission and tap the name of the student.

In the Grade tab, tap the Add icon.

In the grade field [1], enter the grade for the submission according to your grading standard (i.e. points).

If you want to excuse the student from the assignment instead, tap the Excuse Student checkbox [2]. Grades in excused assignments are not calculated in the student's total grade.

To save the grade, tap the OK link [3] or tap the Enter key on your mobile keyboard.

If you added a rubric with your assignment, you can use the rubric to help you score the student's submission. The Grade tab displays whether or not the grade is calculated by the rubric.

To view the rubric short rating summary, tap and hold the rating number [1].

To view multiple criteria in the rubric, you can adjust the height of the grades window by tapping and holding the menu bar [2].

If you selected the rubric to be used for grading, you can automatically apply points to the submission grade.

To select rubric points, tap the rubric score [1]. Selected criteria will be highlighted.

To add a custom score not included in the criteria options, tap the Add icon [2]. You can add a manual grade for the criteria.

Notes:

• Once you have entered a score for a rubric, the rubric score cannot be removed.
• If your rubric is not set to be applied for grading, you can still tap the points for each rubric criterion, but you'll have to add the points manually and enter them in the grade field.
