How to Use Group Grading - Legacy version

The Data Entry panel is a tool designed for FON Data Entry users to submit Faculty Observation and Narrative (FON) checklists while viewing the live or stored recordings of learners.

If the FON Data Entry user would like to give exactly the same feedback on more than one learner's performance, they can switch to Group Grading.

1. Access a recording in Single Room View or from the Video Review page. 

2. Display the Data Entry panel with Panel visibility controls or by clicking on the tab.
   

   Note

   The Data Entry panel and, by extension Group Grading are only available when the Activity is running. If the Activity is no longer running, the system sends a warning message upon arriving at the selected video review screen.

    

3. Click the Group Grading option at the top of the panel.
4. Click on the cogwheel in the upper right corner of the Data Entry panel to display each learner listed for FON evaluation.
   Every learner featured on the current recording will appear.
   By default, every learner is highlighted in blue. 
   
   

5. (Optional) Click on a learner's name to deselect them if you do not want to include them in the evaluation.
   

   Info

   By default, every learner is selected when you switch to Group Grading.

6. Start the data entry. Select the response of each question you would like to apply to everyone.
   

   Note

   Some questions might be disabled for editing. This is because the specific items of the FON checklist have already been filled out for one or more individual learners who are included in Group Grading.

   The following messages might appear under certain question items:

   1.  Incomplete responses
      Some learner(s) already have a FON response for the question, some don't.
   2.  Various responses
      Every learner has a FON response for the question but the responses vary.

   Click on Set them the same to make the questions editable.

    Group Grading overwrites any existing data entry of the included learners. Special rules apply if the Responses are final checkbox is ticked for the FON part—

   Warning - Responses Are Final for the Faculty Observation and Narrative (FON) Checklist

   Group Grading can only be applied with restrictions if the Responses are final checkbox is selected at the Faculty Observation and Narrative (FON) part of the current Case, and there is at least one learner who already has a submitted FON checklist among the learners selected (highlighted in blue) for group grading.

   In such case Group Grading is only available if:

   • none of the learners have FON checklist submission yet or
   • learners have unanimous data entry which means learners with FON part submission have the exact same responses for each question item

7. Submit the checklist.
   Every learner highlighted in the header of Group Grading will get the same FON score.
   

   The system will display a green message filed with the name of the learners whose data entry has been successfully submitted/updated.
