Summary:
Currently, in the Markbook, grade entry is organized by column (assessment), allowing teachers to enter grades for all students in a class for a single column at a time.
I would like to request an additional student-centric grade entry view.
Description:
Introduce a single screen or option that allows teachers to:
-
Select a specific student
-
View all Markbook columns (assessments) for that student
-
Enter or edit grades across multiple columns from one interface
This would function similarly to how the Reports module allows entering multiple criteria for a single student in one place.
Home > Reports > My Reporting > Write Reports > By Student
Use Case:
This feature would be especially useful when:
-
Reviewing or updating grades during student conferences
-
Entering late or make-up work for a specific student
-
Performing final grade checks or adjustments
-
Supporting individualized grading workflows
Benefits:
-
Improves efficiency when working student-by-student
-
Reduces navigation between multiple columns
-
Provides a more intuitive workflow for certain grading scenarios
-
Aligns with existing patterns in the Reports module
Suggested Implementation (Optional):
-
Add a “Student View” toggle/button in the Markbook
-
Display a table with:
-
Columns = Markbook columns (assessments)
-
Rows = Selected student (or expandable for quick switching)
-
-
Allow inline editing similar to the current Markbook interface
Additional context:
This would be particularly helpful for teachers who work student-by-student rather than assessment-by-assessment, especially during interventions or grade reviews.
Closing:
This enhancement would complement the existing column-based workflow by adding a flexible, student-focused alternative for grade entry.
Thanks
