Assign Learners to Specific Graders

Brightspace Advanced Assessments | Instructor Guide 

Purpose: Use learner-to-grader allocations when each grader should evaluate only an assigned set of learners for a particular assignment. 

Before You Start – This is the admin's responsibility and has been completed 

  • Each grader must be actively enrolled in the course. 

  • Each grader needs the Assignments > Give Feedback permission. 

  • The person setting up the assignment needs the Assignments > Add/Edit Assignment Submission Folders permission. 

Allocate Learners to Graders 

1.  Open the assignment. Go to Assignments, then create a new assignment or edit an existing one. 

2.  Select the evaluators. Expand Evaluation & Feedback. Under Evaluators, choose Select Evaluators, select the graders, and choose Done. 

3.  Set publishing access. Under Publishers, select the appropriate option. To limit publishing to the assigned grader, choose Evaluators can only publish their evaluation. 

4.  Open the allocation table. Under Allocate Evaluators to Learners, choose Manage Allocations. 

5.  Assign each learner. In the Evaluator Allocations table, select the box that connects each learner with the correct grader. Clear boxes for graders who should not evaluate that learner. If helpful, filter the table by group or section. 

6.  Save. Choose Save or Save and Close in Manage Allocations, then save the assignment. Brightspace notes that completed mappings may take a short time to appear. 

7.  Repeat for other assignments. The allocation is configured within the assignment, so repeat the process wherever the same learner-to-grader arrangement is needed. 

Important: In Quick Eval, publishers assigned to publish all learner submissions can view submissions for all learners. Select publisher access carefully.
