Important Information

The following guidance is intended for staff at the University of Bath who wish to utilise the anonymous marking functionality in Moodle, along with making use of Turnitin to generate similarity scores and originality reports for submitted work. It assumes some prior familiarity with the Assignment activity and Gradebook.

An online resource outlining the basic features of Online Submission and Feedback in Moodle is also available and whilst this has not been produced with anonymous marking in mind, those staff who are new to online assessment in Moodle may find it helpful to review this material before embarking on use of the Assignment activity. Should you wish for additional support on the use of Moodle to support your assessment processes, please contact the Technology Enhanced Learning Team.

Please Note

The steps below refer to marking with Simple Direct Grading (that is, leaving a percentage score), and as such, does not take into account marking with rubrics or utilising marking workflow functionality. Should such functionality be enabled, the actions completed within the steps would be broadly similar. For any specific questions, please contact the Technology Enhanced Learning Team.

Anonymous marking

Anonymous marking, must be enabled when the relevant Assignment activity is created and prior to it being saved for the first time. This setting cannot be applied after a student submission has been made.

The process of creating the assignment activity and completing marking processes has been separated into the following sequential steps:

This process is mapped out in a one page work-flow diagram which can be printed out and used as a quick reference guide.

A short screencast, which demonstrates these steps is also available.  The same screencast is also available for download in an alternative format.
