Approve and grade without leaving Assign
Use Approve & grade when submitted work is ready to leave review and you want to score it without leaving Assign. The light Grade Sheet keeps the evidence, rubric, feedback, and next actions together.
Approve before grading
Section titled “Approve before grading”From Submissions, select Grade ▸ on work that still needs review. Rectangle asks you to confirm approval first.
Add an optional note to the group if useful, then select Approve & grade. Cancel when the work still needs review or another version.
Score in the Grade Sheet
Section titled “Score in the Grade Sheet”The sheet identifies the participant and milestone. Use it to:
- select a rubric level or supported half-step for each criterion;
- reveal level descriptions with show levels;
- open the work evidence with view work;
- add a criterion comment where the feedback belongs to one score;
- add Overall feedback for the result as a whole.
Private observation notes can appear as context, but they do not enter the score and are not student feedback.
Choose how to finish
Section titled “Choose how to finish”- Save draft keeps the grade teacher-only.
- Grade & next saves and moves to the next gradeable item.
- Publish grade publishes this one result after confirmation.
- Open full grading moves to the full grader when you need member-level adjustments or its deeper controls.
Publishing makes the named grade and feedback visible immediately. Canceling the confirmation leaves the saved grade as a teacher-only draft.
