Moodle Tip: Using a Marking Guide

? Question:   Is there a grading tool in Moodle that offers a bit more flexibility than a Rubric?

√ Answer:   Yes! Try using a Marking Guide! A marking guide is an advanced grading method that allows you to create a set of criteria for a Moodle assignment, optionally share these criteria in advance with students, and grade each criterion using a range of point values. It also allows you to build a set of frequently-used comments to use when grading.

English instructor Lyndsay Knowles says, "I absolutely love this grading tool. It has made the grading process so much easier for both major essays and projects this semester. I hope more instructors try it out."
