When creating as assessment in the gradebook you can create a group assessment. This will allow leaners to upload one assignment (if you use a drop box) on behalf of their whole group and when a grader grades the assignment, the grade will be applied to all group members.
If you use this tool, graders can still tweak individual grades after the group grade has been entered.
To use this feature, you must have course groups built. Please see the Course>Groups page for more detail.
Click the checkbox beside "This is a group assessment."
Search for or click the checkboxes beside the relevant group names. In the sample above, Groups 1, 2, and 3 have been selected.
Click somewhere outside the selection window to close it.
The selected groups should display on a list below the "Select Groups" dropdown.
Begin to type a grader name into the search field and when matches appear, click on the appropriate name and select Add.
You may add multiple graders to one assessment.
To assign groups to graders, click the checkbox beside multiple group names and click 'Assign Selected to Grader'.
In the popup window, click the checkbox beside the appropriate grader name click 'Assign Learner'.
The names of individual learners in each group should appear beside the grader name in the Grader/Assigned Learners table on the left.
Before adding more groups to another grader, make sure you uncheck the groups you have already assigned.
To delete a learner from a grader's list, click the red minus icon. Note that the learner will not be added back to learner's list since it only shows groups. If you remove a learner from a graders list you need to ensure the student gets graded some other way.
If you want faculty to be responsible for grading a group of learners but don't want to use a group assessment, you can set everything up as above, then uncheck the "This is a group assessment" option. The assigned learners will stay associated with their grader.
