Table of Contents

The marks return system is homed within Myplace.  This can be deceptive because, in fact, it draws almost all its data from the student record system.

Note
titleSource of students listed on a marks return

The list of students you see in a marks return screen is a list of all the students who are registered on the class.  It is not linked to the students who are enrolled on the Myplace site.

Check you have permission to return marks for the class

The new marks return system will only allow you to return marks for a class if you have the 'Electronic Marks Returner' role for that class.


Info
titleElectronic Marks Returner role

This role is assigned in Pegasus by the Departmental Administrator.

Ensure all relevant students are registered on the class

The list of students you see in a marks return screen is a list of all the students who are registered on the class.  It is not linked to the students who are enrolled on the Myplace site.  Therefore, any missing students will need to be added by Student Business.


Note
titleManually adding students to a return

It is not possible to manually add students to a marks return.  They must be added by Student Business.

Determine the method for entering marks

The marks return system will accept marks via three different methods:

  • typing the marks directly into the screens
  • uploading a .csv file with specified headings
  • pulling the marks from the Myplace gradebook
  • typing the marks directly into the screens



Agree a naming convention

The marks return system stores a record of all marks returns in any given academic year.  To help you easily distinguish between returns made to summer boards rather than resit boards, you are required to give each return a title.


Note
titleAgree a naming convention

We strongly recommend that each Department/School agrees a naming convention to provide consistency and ease of reference for all staff.
