Quick Eval

Quick Eval is a Brightspace tool that allows instructors to hop to any assessments with new submissions for grading across their courses from the Brightspace homepage. It is a convenient way of knowing what assessments require attention, and acting upon that information.

Locating Quick Eval

Quick Eval is a tool located on an instructor’s Brightspace homepage (accessible by clicking the Brock logo in the top-left of Brightspace). It can be found in two places:

Navbar

Quick Eval can be found via the navbar on the Brightspace homepage.

Widget

Quick Eval is also a widget on an instructor’s Brightspace homepage. It can be found below the My Courses widget. Clicking on the Quick Eval title or “View all activities” on the widget will open the Quick Eval tool fully.

View By/Filtering

The Quick Eval tool has a default view of sorting submissions by submission date (least recent → most recent), it also offers the option to view by Activities, allowing instructors to search for new submissions from a particular assessment.

Instructors are given the ability to filter by Activity Name (Assessment Name), Course, and Date should they be looking for particular submissions.

Grading Through Quick Eval

It is recommended that instructors who choose to grade through Quick Eval do so using the View by Activities option. This view gives instructors more options for grading. The View by Submission is best used when instructors only plan on evaluating a certain student. Assessing multiple new submissions is best used in View by Activities.
