For supervisorsAssessment involves preparing criteria, following responses and offering feedback. Configure the activity for its learning objective and check when participants can view the assessment. This page starts with setup, then covers follow-up, reports and result release.
After preparing questions, open Evaluation Settings. Depending on the screen, you can also access them through the activity’s Settings.
Configure activity assessment
Screenshots show Production activity setup. Options may vary by activity type and installation. Instructions use English field names.

Select the scale
Options can include Default, Competent, Productivity, Self-evaluation (comprehension), Fluency, and team-created scales. All criteria use the same selected scale. Check that its levels suit every aspect you intend to assess.

All aspects have equal importance.
Manual
You enter each weight; the total must be 100%.
Some aspects should contribute more.
Manual distribution
Select Manual distribution and set each Weight. For example: 40%, 40%, 20%. Recheck the total after adding or deleting criteria. The trash icon removes a criterion.
Manual distribution
Check question weights
Question weights are separate from criteria weights. Choose equal or manual distribution when available. Manual question weights must total 100%.
Check question weights
The example has one question at 100%. With more questions, review their contributions using enabled options.

Choose the final summary and dates
Enable Start date and Close date to set the availability period. Dates define the activity window; completion time defines duration. The response summary is also different from grade and answer-key release.
Review and finish
Check that the scale suits the criteria, names are clear, criteria weights and question weights each total 100%, and grade, attempts, time and dates are consistent. Confirm review options match your intended release. Select Done.
Under Scales, select Add new scale, enter a title and define levels. Then select it in relevant activities. Scales are reusable. Examples include Default (0%–100%), Competent, Productivity, Self-evaluation (comprehension) and Fluency. Check the registered levels before using one in a new task.
In Activity overview, define each activity’s weight and whether it counts towards the final grade. Activities marked training only do not generate a grade. This is different from the criteria and question weights within an activity.
Under Assessment partner, choose a participant to assess a colleague in the same Space. Select written/video feedback without a grade or criteria-based assessment with a grade. Peer assessments appear in the corresponding report view and complement learning. The Supervisor remains responsible for the main assessment.
With Manual Release, participants cannot see grades or the answer key until release. After checking assessment, open this option and choose Individual release or Release to all.See also: Create assessment activities and View results and feedback.
