To use MakeMusic Cloud to automatically provide an assessment grade for each student, select Submit grade automatically.

When Submit grade automatically is selected, the assignment is automatically graded according to the computer-based assignment percentage score, and adjusted to reflect the total number of points you want your assignment to have. This grade appears immediately in the Gradebook. When an assignment is past due, it is automatically graded as a zero. You can listen to the student’s performance and modify the grade at any time in the Gradebook.

 

Automatically graded assignments do not appear under Assignment To Be Graded on your Dashboard, as they do not need to be graded.

 

 

Create an Ungraded assignment rubric

 

You can choose to have an Ungraded assignment if you would like students to submit their assignment without impacting their grade in the Gradebook. You can still listen to their submissions, leave feedback, and reassign, but you will not be able to add a grade for this type of assignment.

Create a custom rubric

 

If you would like to evaluate students on other criteria in addition to the automatic MakeMusic Cloud score, use the Custom rubric option. Additional criteria can be added to grade an assignment, like Tone, Dynamics, and Articulations.  These criteria will also be available to include on any future assignments you create. New criteria are not automatically assessed, but the grading criteria are customizable to fit your needs. The MakeMusic Cloud score is available for you to use as a component of your grading, but you can disable it by unchecking it if you do not want to use it. To create new criteria that can be added to the rubric for this and future assignments, click New Criteria

You can also add multiple levels to a criterion. Select New level to create a multi-level criterion. Each level awards a percentage of the total points to the student for that criterion. After you fill out the information for one level, select New level again to add another. At least one level should be set at 100% to allow students to be able receive full credit for that criterion.
