The Course Grading Scheme in Each Stage
Help your students understand where their grades are coming from. The default setting is the most common scheme and is recommended by Kritik.
Default grading scheme:
Creation Score: 50%
Evaluation Score: 40%
Grading Score: 50% of the total evaluation score
20% of entire Kritik activity
Written Evaluation Score: 50% of the total evaluation score
20% of entire Kritik activity
Feedback Score: 10%
Creation Score
In Kritik’s default grading scheme, this is 50% of a student's overall grade for an activity
Calculated as the weighted average of the student’s peer’s numeric evaluation of a student’s creation.
Evaluation Score
In Kritik’s default grading scheme, the entirety of the evaluation stage is 40% of a student's overall grade for an activity
Comprised of 2 factors: Grading Score and Written Evaluation Score
Grading Score:
In Kritik’s default grading scheme, this is 50% of a student's overall grade for the Evaluation stage
Determined by how well a student can grade according to the rubric.
Tip: To help ensure accurate student grading, we highly recommend beginning your course with a calibration activity.
Written Evaluation Score:
In Kritik’s default grading scheme, this is 50% of a student's overall grade for the Evaluation stage
Students submit written feedback on their peer’s creations.
In the Feedback Stage, peers grade on how motivational and critical their comments were to make up the student’s Written Evaluation Score
Feedback Score
In Kritik’s default grading scheme, this is 10% of a student's overall grade for the Activity
This is often weighted the lowest as this is a participation mark only
For example, if the student has completed all of the feedback assigned to them, then they would receive 100%.
It is important to still assign a weighted grade to this stage - the Feedback students provide will inform the written evaluation score of their evaluators.
