Error Fixing

Inevitably when you administer an assessment, a student might double bubble, leave a question blank, or not erase an answer choice very well.

After you upload completed student answer sheets, Global Scholar will bring these problems to your attention and ask you to fix them before you move on.

1) Log-in to Global Scholar

2) Under the "Manage" (or "Classes" tab if "Manage" is not available) click "Assignments"

3) Find your assignment to see if it requires review. In the example below you'll see "80 requires review." Normally assignments will only have a few errors. This is an example we use for PD trainings!

      Click "requires review"


Fixing Multiple Choice Question

  • For questions that were very lightly bubbled, simply click the answer choice the student bubbled
  • For some questions Global Scholar cannot tell whether a student chose one answer or another. Click the button to the right of the exclamation mark to open up the student's answer sheet to see what the student chose.

  • Finally, any questions students left blank can be resolved by clicking "Mark Blanks as Zero Points" directly below the question numbers in the upper left.

Fixing Open-Ended Questions

     You will almost always have to open up the student's answer sheet to review open-ended questions. This can be avoided by writing the score for the question in the blank line in the answer sheet. You only need to write the score into that blank line if you've edited your score for a question (by "x"ing out an answer choice, or circling the choice you meant to bubble)
  • Open the answer sheet the same way you would for multiple choice questions.
  • See what value you meant to award the question
  • Type the value into the box to the right of the exclamation button.
Other Important Info

     There are four crucial buttons in this process
  • Click "Save Draft" often, to save your progress
  • Click "Previous" or "Next" to navigate to the next question
  • Click "Publish" when you have fixed everything
The Dreaded Red Bar!
     Occasionally an answer sheet will not scan properly (the sheet might be crumpled or might just go through the scanner in a funky way). In these cases you will need to rescan and upload that answer sheet.
