When you purchase an independent course delivered in the Bridgeway LMS including Discover!, parents are in control of the course management. Parents complete the grading, re-open assignments, and edit the gradebook. The final grade is in control of the homeschool parent. A final completion report is delivered via email when the course is completed. 


Grading


When a Parent logs into the BLC, they will see Items to Grade for all course enrollments for each of their students. 



To grade an item, click on the hyperlink to open the item. 




Grading Assignments 


When you select an item that is an assignment type, the assignment is presented followed by the submitted file or text and then by the rubric (if available.) Grading an assignment by rubric is simple. 


  • Review each category on the rubric and select the option that most closely matches your student's performance.  
  • After selecting a point value for each category, the score is calculated for your student. 
  • You can then add a comment to communicate information to your student and then submit the grade.



Grading Quizzes

Sometimes quizzes will have questions that require parent grading. Information for graders will show the expected response.
