On the Scribo homepage go to any of your activities, click on the three dots icon, then select Edit Activity. You will then be redirected to the same settings you encountered when first creating this activity.
For this video, we’ll be focusing on the Grading & Feedback tab.
By default, a new writing activity has the option Grade automatically and assign a Scribo score enabled. This assigns each student a score based on their performance across five dimensions of writing. You can keep this on if you would like to continue using the Scribo score.
However, you can use different grading/marking criteria by adding a rubric to your activity. To do so, simply select from any of the rubrics available in your library or the community library.
If you’d like to learn more about creating, using, and sharing rubrics on Scribo, check out our other Help Center articles all about rubrics.
Aside from rubrics, you can also give your students feedback using Writing Goals. These are AI generated feedback about a student’s performance in certain aspects of their work.
As the teacher, you can choose a category of writing where you would like students to receive feedback. For example, students can receive feedback about how they write paragraphs, their use of vocabulary, or just overall feedback about their essay.
In each category, you can choose a goal to curate exactly what kind of feedback students will get. For example, you can highlight both a student’s strengths and areas of improvement by selecting glow n grow. You can select as little or as many goals as you want.
Each writing category contains a bunch of different writing goals. We highly encourage you to familiarize yourself with these in order to determine which category and which goal best suits your students’ needs.
Once you’re satisfied with your selections, you can click Save and continue, if you want to keep editing your activity, or Save and exit if you’re done.
There you go! You’ve successfully customized the Grading & Feedback settings on your writing activity.
