1. How do I know which questions need grading?
When you open a student's answers, or open question by question grading, the questions list indicates which questions need grading.
The ungraded responses that need grading are underlined in yellow .
2. How do I set a 0 grade for a question or question part?
In the inline score box for an ungraded question, change 0 to 0.0 and hit ENTER or TAB, or simply click out of the box to set a 0 score.
In the case of a multi-part question with a free response, if you want to set the grade of the free response part to 0, you can add similarly add a 0. For example, a 0.5 can be changed to 0.50 to mark it as graded. Note: This applies only to ungraded questions. If the question is already marked as graded, you will get a no change alert.
