It is my understanding that the spec below is suggesting that manual allocation happens within the assignment grading table, whereas random allocation will effectively occur via the use of groups and will take advantage of the random allocation mechanisms already built into the group manager in Moodle. GW - my concern with the paragraph above is that it implies that the processes of allocating manually, randomly or by groups will all operate identically. As the marking progresses, allocations can be changed (e.g., when a marker becomes unavailable). The teacher in charge of the assignment decides the marker allocation (the teacher selects all staff involved in marking and then distributes marking manually, randomly, or even based on groups).


Only the marker allocated can mark a student. With marker allocations, it is recorded which marker (teacher or teaching assistant) is marking which student. To achieve this focus two aspects need to be introduced: The teacher in charge of the assignment wants to be able to see how marking is progressing and what quality the marking is (per marker and across markers). The idea is to allow each individual marker to have an overview of marking assigned to them and of the status this marking is in. The focus here is on assisting with the marking process, typically in situations where multiple teachers and/or teaching assistants form a marking team. Certainly the staff member in charge should be able to see who is marking which assignment, however I think that a setting (switch oon) to allow other persons (possibly admin staff/non teachers) t osee who is marking which student/s assignments. SW(USQ) I consider it important from an administration point of view that it is important to record which staff member is marking which student. This functionality is primarily of interest to the EAM project. The staff member in charge of the overall course might have a setting, which allows to see assignment marking for all students (of all groups). It is not recorded which staff member is marking which students. When looking at the assignment marking (mod/assign/view.php?id=3&action=grading) staff associated with a group should only see the students belonging to this group.

The staff associated with each group of students are responsible for marking their groups. The same assignment is setup for the whole course. Two or more staff are associated with each group (one teacher and several teaching assistants). In terms of assignment marking the idea is that staff associated with groups are responsible for the marking of students in their groups and fulfil such marking independently from the marking of other groups.Īn example would be: A course with 300 students is divided into 3 groups of students (based on different delivery locations, modes, tutorial groups, or other criteria). This is relevant in the context of large courses where groups/groupings are used to divide the students into groups and to associate dedicated staff with these groups.
