Score delivery
The work students do in the webtext—such as answering multiple-choice, short-answer, and poll questions; response boards; and writing templates—is graded automatically as they complete it. When students want to view their scores, they can check the grade center in their LMS. Scores will reflect the most recent attempt and are cumulative.
Note: If you have not already integrated the webtext into your LMS course shell, please do! We highly recommend connecting our webtext directly with your LMS course shell and assigning it for credit, and we’re happy to help you set that up. Webtext points can be configured to match your syllabus. They are graded and pushed to your LMS grade columns automatically.
Automatic scoring
The types of questions, as well as how many points are awarded, can vary per webtext. The following webtext assignments can be automatically scored.
Points awarded for correct answers only: multiple-choice questions
Points awarded for completion: response boards, short-answer questions, polls, templates
Answer resets
In most webtexts, students can reset answers to questions. When a single question is reset, the score for that question returns to zero, and students can try again. If a student resets all questions on a page, all multiple-choice scores for that page return to zero, and students can attempt the questions again.
Depending on your webtext settings, some questions may have a limited number of resets. Once the limit is reached, students can no longer reset that question, and the question is scored based on the most recent attempt.
Unexpected LMS scores
Students should first check the progress indicators in the webtext. Our Student Help Center article How do I tell if I’m done with my work? has more information on the different indicators students can use to track their work.
If you or your students see something in the grade center that isn’t expected, please contact Soomo Support.
Tip: Remember that it may take up to ten minutes for webtext scores to appear in the LMS grade center.
