1. Access Pending Assessments
This lesson will teach you how to locate a Regular Assessment. A Regular Assessment occurs when a Student submits work to their Assessor, and the work is assessed directly within Chalk & Wire. The Assessment Instrument and student work are presented together on the same screen, where the assessor chooses a level for each criterion, and can leave various types of comments.
Step 1: Access Your Pending Assessments
There are two ways to access your Pending Assessments:
- Using the Pending Assessments tab on your Dashboard
- Using the Assessment menu to select Assess
