Per page "note" box

Added by Will Ursus almost 10 years ago

From time to time, I made mistakes grading open questions and would like to assign a different value of score. So I crossed out the incorrectly marked score box and marked a new one. This inevitably confused AMC and a zero-score will be computed as more than one scores are marked. My current solution is to additionally note in the name field the corresponding page number(s) with changed score(s); After going through a complete import-mark-associate process, I check all name fields and use manual capture to correct corresponding questions.

I'm wondering if there is an out-of-box solution to put an indicative choice box (in the header?) per page? So I could query the score database file to pull a list of pages with this box marked.

Perhaps you can use manual data capture to change the box you want to tick directly with AMC?

That's exactly what I am doing, by going to "manual capture" and un-tick crossed out boxes after an "automatic-capture-mark-associate" process.

It's just that it's too much a hassle to go through all pages. That's exhausting (for >50 students and >50 pages per student) and error-prone. I partly reduce the hassle by noting in the name field pages where "manual" un-tick is needed during grading process. However, if students change their mind when answering multiple choice questions, cross out one and tick another, I won't be able to detect unless I still go through all pages.

Just while typing these message, I realized that I could query on the score.sqlite file to pull a list of questions scored "0" due to "more than one boxes are ticked"
select * from scoring_score where score=0 and why='E' (Is this sufficient?)
Then I should be able to generate a text file with student/page for further manual un-tick.

Then again, if at "manual capture" interface, I could load this text file to filter out unnecessary pages in the right panel, it'll make navigating through pages much easier.

Hope that I've clarified my points.

This is sufficient (why='E' alone should also be sufficient). Those questions are also colored in red in the ODS export.
