Assign Evaluators & Publishers to an Assignment
The Evaluator and
Publisher settings in the Assignment tool allow instructors to assign multiple
evaluators to evaluate a single assignment submission when creating or editing
assignments, choose which evaluators can publish grades for the assignment from
the Assignment tool by setting them as publishers, match evaluators to learners
and choose from two multi-evaluator workflows. This tutorial demonstrates how
to assign evaluators and publishers to an assignment in MyFIRE.
Note: These settings
cannot be changed once submissions have been received for an assignment.
- Navigate to the course in
MyFIRE.
- Select Instructor Tools from the navigation bar at the top of the page.
3. A drop-down menu will appear. Select Course Admin.
4. When the page refreshes, locate and select Assignments.
5. The page will refresh to show all of the assignments that
have been created in the course. Locate the specified assignment you
would like to add evaluators or publishers to.
6. Select the drop-down arrow to the right of the
assignment title.
7. A drop-down menu will appear. Select Edit Assignment.
8. The page will refresh to show the assignment edit page.
Select the Evaluation & Feedback drop-down menu.
9. Underneath Evaluators, select Select Evaluators.
10. A pop-up window will appear. Select one or more
Evaluators for the assignment.
11. Then, select Done.
12. Underneath Publishers, select the drop-down menu.
13. Select either “All evaluators can publish any evaluations”,
“Evaluators can only publish their evaluations”, or “Manually select
publishers”.
a. If “Manually select publishers” is selected, an option will
appear to Select Publishers.
b. A pop-up window will
appear. Select at least one publisher who will be able to release all
evaluations.
c. Then, select Done.
14. Underneath Allocate Evaluators to Learners, select Manage
Allocations. By default, selected evaluators can evaluate any learner.
15. A pop-up window will appear. At the top of the window,
select the drop-down menu to select a default allocation method which
will determine how to automatically allocate evaluators to learners. New
learner enrollments will follow this default method. The options include
“Allocate all evaluators to every learner” or “Randomly allocate 1 evaluator to
every learner equally”.
16. Select Apply Allocation Method to update this
setting.
17. Underneath Evaluator Allocations, determine which
evaluators will be able to evaluate each student by checking the
corresponding checkboxes underneath each evaluator.
18. When finished, select Done.
19. Underneath Coordinate Multiple Evaluators, choose how the
evaluation process works when there are multiple evaluators allocated to the
same learner by selecting one of the following options:
a. One shared evaluation - All evaluators work on the same
evaluation together. Publishers release this evaluation to learners.
Note: We recommend this
setting for evaluators who will be actively working collaboratively with one
another, since evaluators will be editing one shared evaluation and may not
notice edits made by other evaluators.
b. Multiple individual evaluations - Evaluators work on their
own evaluations separately. Publishers aggregate results into one final
evaluation and release it to learners.
