  • How many submissions were graded inside the grading time? 

  • How quickly are submissions graded? 

  • How long does it take to grade by submission type? 

  • How many submissions need to be graded? 

  • What proportion of submissions are graded inside the grading time per Institutional Hierarchy Node? 

  • How do Institutional Hierarchy Nodes compare in regards to grading? 

  • Which courses are graded inside the grading time?

How many submissions were graded inside the grading time? 

This donut chart compares the proportion of submissions that instructors graded before and after the Expected Grading Time (days) you've selected. 

Consider:  

  • If an instructor returned a grade before or on your Expected Grading Time (days), the grade is Inside grading time.  
  • If an instructor turned in a grade after your Expected Grading Time (days), the grade is Outside grading time. 

 

How quickly are submissions graded? 

This histogram counts the number of submissions by how quickly they're graded in days and if they’re Inside grading time or Outside grading time based on the Expected Grading time (days) you've selected. 

 

How long does it take to grade by submission type? 

This table measures the minimum, average, median, and maximum days it takes to grade a specific submission type. The table also measures how many submissions need to be graded by submission type.  

Consider:  

  • Minimum, maximum, and average calculations include data points that differ significantly from other observations. 

 

How many submissions need to be graded? 

The KPIs show the number and proportion of submissions that need to be graded.  

 

What proportion of submissions are graded inside the grading time per Institutional Hierarchy Node? 

This stacked bar chart measures the percentage of submissions that are graded Inside grading time and Outside grading time within the Institutional Hierarchy Node you’ve selected. 

 

How do Institutional Hierarchy Nodes compare in regards toin regard to grading? 

This table shows how the Institutional Hierarchy Nodes you’ve selected compare in terms of course count, instructor enrollment count, active student count, submissions graded within KPI, total ungraded submission count, average grading time in days, average ungraded submission count per course.  

Consider:  

 

Which courses are graded inside the grading time? 

This table shows the courses within the Institutional Hierarchy Node that have graded submissions inside the grading time based on the Expected Grading Time (days) you’ve selected. Additionally, it shows for those courses their instructor enrollment count, active student count, ungraded submission count, and average grading time in days.
