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 | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
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 | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
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 | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
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:
- 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 | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
We strongly recommend that each Department/School agrees a naming convention to provide consistency and ease of reference for all staff. |
Marks codes
The student record system will only accept four mark codes via a marks return. All other codes must be taken to the exam board in person. The accepted codes are:
- Absent - ABS
- Exempt from Final Assessment - EX
- Extension - EN
- Fail Overall - FO
