Coordinator dashboard

The Coordinator Dashboard provides marking coordinators with the tools they need to effectively manage the marking process. This article will outline the features of the dashboard, aiming to help you understand how to make the most of it for tracking assessor/moderator progress and ensuring timelines are met.

Navigation

To access the dashboard, navigate to Marking > Coordinator tab > select a schedule.

The coordinator is responsible for setting the marking workflow, assigning markers and monitoring the marking progress.

In the dashboard you can find the following tools to help the coordinator:

• To-do list
• Details
• Progress by assessor
• Progress by round
• Export results (Preliminary results)

To-do list

The To-do list, displayed on the right side, guides you through the initial steps to effectively use the dashboard:

• Set the marking workflow
• Add a pool of assessors
• Allocate assessors
• Apply changes

Details

The details overview gives you a quick overall metrics:

• Forms used - When using fixed forms it's possible to use multiple forms.
• to be manually marked - How many questions in total needs manually marking. Autoscored questions will not be taken in to account, since they are autoscored by the platform.
• Number of candidates - The total number of candidates for this particular schedule
• Number of assigned assessors - The number of allocated assessors for this particular schedule
• Overall progress - The overall progress of marking of this schedule

Progress per assessor

The progress by Assessor shows a list of all allocated assessors and it's progress indicated via a percentage.

A color-coded legend indicates the marking status:

• Dark blue > Marked
• Light blue > to be marked
• Green > 100% done

Besides the progress the coordinator can also check the last activity for this schedule. When the assessor hasn't been active for a while for this particul schedule, it will show their names in red. This could be very usefull to contact the assigned marker in case you have a deadline to finish marking

Tip: don't forget the search option to search on assessors + sorting columns

Toggle scripts

When enabling the 'Scripts' toggle, instead of showing the progress via a percentage, it will show you the marking pogress of the amount of scripts. Scripts are considered to be items or questions.

Progress by rounds

It's also possible to track the progress 'by rounds'. Cirrus offers multiple rounds when setting up the marking workflow in the settings tab. By default only 1 assessor round is setup, however you can have 2 assessors + 3 moderation rounds as a maximum.

Possible rounds:

• Assessor 1
• Assessor 2
• Moderation 1
• Moderation 2
• Moderation 3
