Overview

Instructors can use the Bulk Assess functionality to assess multiple poll responses at once. This feature allows instructors to apply an outcome, score and/or comment to a set of responses in one click. Instructors can then edit and customize these assessments before publishing to participants.

How to use Bulk Assess

  • Click Assess Multiple at the top-right corner of the page

  • Enter an outcome, score and/or comment

  • Select the applicable participant responses. You can also use the Select all feature or one of the filters. See the below section on filters for details.

  • Click Apply. The outcome, score and/or comment should appear next to the selected responses

  • Save each assessment individually, or click Save All at the top right to save all assessments.

Using Filters

Filters allow you to view Only assessed items or Only non-assessed items so that you can focus on what needs to be assessed.

You can use Select all while a filter is applied to quickly find and apply a score, outcome or assessment to a set of responses.
