Set up ratings in a glossary
You may wish students to rate other students' work (peer assess). If making this part of the assessment, you could then view the ratings and determine an overall rating for a student. Glossary entries can be rated using a scale. By default, only teaching
staff can rate glossary entries, though students can be given permission to do so if desired (see step 2 below). Any ratings given are recorded in the Gradebook.
If you set up glossaries for rating, the glossary item will automatically appear in the Gradebook. Otherwise, if you want
to assess the glossary you will need to manually add it to the Gradebook.
Edit the settings of the glossary you wish to set up ratings for
Under Ratings, check the Roles with permission to rate list. If you want students to rate posts, you will need to add Student to this list. To do this, contact your local eLearning support team
Set the Aggregate type:
Average of ratings (default) – useful if there is more than one post/one marker
Count of ratings: The number of rated items becomes the final grade. Note that the total cannot exceed the maximum grade for the activity
Maximum rating: The highest rating becomes the final grade
Minimum rating: The lowest rating becomes the final grade
Sum of ratings: All ratings are added together. Note that the total cannot exceed the maximum grade for the activity
Set the Scale Type:
If you change the type to Scale, change the scale to Non-graded pass so no Maximum points can be set
If you tick the box Restrict ratings to items with dates in this range: you will need to set the dates (From, To)
If leave the type as Point, you can set the Maximum points (default is 100)
Note: You can leave the default at 100, as if you set the weighting of the final grade for this assessment in Gradebook, the grade will be automatically scaled down
If you tick the box Restrict ratings to items with dates in this range: you will need to set the dates (From, To)
