Manually Grade Moodle Lessons

For staff on how to grade Moodle Lessons.

Note

For a Lesson to be graded:

  • it must have at least one question where a student can receive a score
  • it cannot be a practice lesson

Only essay type questions, if included in a Moodle Lesson, need to be manually graded. Grades are calculated when the student has completed a lesson and kept for every student attempt.
