Understanding Your Grades

Overall Score

At the top of your graded submission, you’ll see:
  • Your total points earned
  • The maximum points possible
  • Your percentage (if shown)
Some teachers hide point values so you focus on the feedback instead.

Question Scores (Quizzes/Exams)

For quizzes, exams, and structured assignments:
  • Each question shows your score
  • You can see which questions you got right or wrong
  • Feedback explains the correct answer or where you lost points

Reading Your Feedback

Overall Feedback

Your teacher may add overall comments at the top, summarizing:
  • General impressions of your work
  • Key takeaways
  • Suggestions for future assignments

Feedback Styles

Your feedback might appear in different styles depending on what your teacher selected:
  • Direct comments on specific parts of your work
  • Similar to Google Docs-style annotations
  • Shows exactly where you earned or lost points
  • Glows: What you did well (your strengths)
  • Grows: Areas for improvement
  • Detailed feedback organized by each rubric criterion
  • Clear breakdown of how you performed on each section
  • Starts with positives, then constructive feedback, ends with positives
  • Balanced approach that highlights growth areas while acknowledging strengths
  • Specific, step-by-step suggestions for improvement
  • Concrete next steps you can take to improve your work
  • Feedback through guiding questions
  • Prompts self-reflection to help you understand your work deeper

Viewing Your Submitted Work

On the graded submission page:
  • Left side: Your original submitted work (document, video, etc.)
  • Right side: Scores and feedback
You can:
  • Scroll through your document
  • Play videos or audio
  • View images at full size
This lets you see exactly what the AI and teacher evaluated.

If Points Are Hidden

Your teacher may choose to hide point values. In this case:
  • You’ll see feedback but not numerical scores
  • This helps you focus on improving, not just the grade
  • Your teacher can still see your scores

What to Do With Your Feedback

Review Carefully

  1. Read all feedback, not just the score
  2. Note patterns—do you see the same comments across assignments?
  3. Highlight suggestions you can apply to future work

Ask Questions

If you don’t understand your feedback:
  • Ask your teacher for clarification
  • Review the rubric to understand expectations
  • Compare your work to the rubric criteria

Improve Next Time

Use feedback to:
  • Identify your strengths to keep building on
  • Focus on areas that need work
  • Set specific goals for your next assignment

Troubleshooting

  • Your teacher may not have returned it yet
  • Check that the assignment status shows “Returned”
  • Ask your teacher if they’ve finished grading
  • Scroll to see all criteria
  • Check for an “Overall Feedback” section at the top
  • Some criteria may not have additional comments if you scored well
  • Review the rubric to understand the scoring
  • Compare your work to the feedback
  • Politely ask your teacher to explain or reconsider
  • Older assignments should still be visible in your class
  • If you left a class, you may lose access
  • Contact your teacher if you need past grades

Privacy

Your grades and feedback are private:
  • Only you and your teacher can see your scores
  • Other students cannot view your submissions or grades
  • Your work is stored securely in GradingPal
