Grading with different MyLO tools
This table provides an overview of common MyLO tools, and their relationship to Grade Items. It also takes into account electronic Rubrics, Turnitin and Grademark.
| Dropbox | Discussion Topic | Quiz | ePortfolio | Standalone Grade Items |
|
| Attach a Grade Item or use a standalone Grade Item? | Attach a Grade Item | If you are not using a Rubric*, or assessing numerous small group discussions*, attach a Grade Item. |
Attach a Grade Item | Create a Dropbox Folder for students to submit to. Attach a Grade Item to the Dropbox Folder | Use for performances that cannot be submitted, like tracking participation |
| Can Turnitin be used? | Yes | No | No | No | No |
| Can Grademark be used? | Yes (depending on type of file submitted) | No | No | No | No |
| Attach a MyLO Rubric | Attach it to the Dropbox. | You can use a Rubric, but the grading process will be quite complex. *Use a standalone Grade Item instead of attaching a Grade Item to the Discussion. Attach the Rubric (if using) to the standalone Grade Item. | It is possible to use a Rubric for feedback purposes; however, typing directly into the feedback fields within the Quiz tool itself is easier and more efficient. You can attach a feedback (text) Rubric to a Quiz OR a Grade Item associated with a Quiz, but how you mark and where students see the Rubric will differ accordingly. | Attach it to the Dropbox. Requires the use of two monitors – one to view the Rubric, and another to view the students’ work. Does not work well in Google Chrome. | Attach the Rubric to the Grade Item. Best used for feedback purposes only. |
| Mark and provide feedback to a group | Dropbox must be set up as a Group Dropbox when it is first created. | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| Alter an individual group member’s grade | Do this in the associated Grade Item. Direct students to look at the Grades tool for their final results for the task. | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
