Part V: Accessing Student Assessment Scores

Once students have taken an assessment using an instance URL, their scores will be available in the repository. (Note: If you used  Canvas and the ‘Add an Assignment’ option, student scores will  SYNC to your Canvas grade book.)

To access student assessment scores from the repository:

  • Log into the repository, and select the “Published Instances” tab at the top of the window.
  • Select the title of the instance from the list associated with your course.
  • Select the “Assessment Scores” tab near the top of the window.
  • The assessment scores will be displayed, and you can use the ‘Download Scores’ option to save them as an Excel file.

Part IV: Giving Students Access to Module Instances

To give students access to module instances:

  • Log in to the repository and go to “Published Instances” tab at the top of the window.
  • Select the title of the instance from the list of instances displayed on the left.
  • Locate the URL for the instance in the “Instance Details” panel next to the Instance Link label.
  • Share this URL with students.

When students use this URL they will need to log in with their NID and NID password and they will be able to access that instance’s unique log in page. When assigning modules to students, it may be helpful to include the following text along with the instance URL for the module.

Below are links to Information Literacy Modules that you will complete. You will need to log in with your NID and your NID password. If you don’t remember your NID, you can look it up here https://my.ucf.edu/nid.html

If you’re unsure of your NID password, you can reset your password using this online form
