5. Entering Marks

If an Online Class Test tool has been paired with an Exam tool (see section Marking resources and optional questions), marks can be entered directly into the Online Class Test tool. This can be done individually or by csv upload. Any marks entered into the Online Class Test tool will also be visible in the paired Exam tool, which can then be used to pass the marks through to the final grade tool for the final module grade calculations.

If the Online Class Test tool has not been paired with an Exam tool, or your school has given alternative directions, please follow school instructions on where to enter marks.

This section of the guide will cover:

 

5.1    Manual Mark entry

Marks can be entered manually on the Online Class Test overview page or the individual student view.
