The Marking App
A rich-text area for marking guides, rubric criteria, and session notes.
The notes area sits on the right side of every page. Use it to store the marking guide, grade boundaries, rubric criteria, or observations from a marking session. Notes are visible to everyone with access to the page - viewers can read them, editors and admins can edit them.
Notes open in read-only mode by default. Click Edit to enter edit mode, where a formatting toolbar becomes available. The toolbar supports bold, italic, underline, headings, bullet and numbered lists, blockquotes, code blocks, and tables.
When you're done, click Save to commit your changes, or Discard to abandon them and return to the last saved state.
Tip: Paste the assessment marking guide directly into the notes area. That way your criteria are always visible alongside the comment bank while marking.
While editing, type / to open the command
palette. Start typing to filter the list. Available commands:
Bold - wrap selection or toggle bold at cursor.
Italic
Underline
Strikethrough
Inline code - format a word or phrase as monospace.
Heading 1 / 2 / 3
Bullet list
Numbered list
Quote - block quotation.
Code block - multi-line code or preformatted text.
Comment link - insert a linked chip that points to a comment in the bank (see below).
Table - insert a 3×3 table.
Add row / Add column - extend the current table.
Delete row / Delete column / Delete table
You can reference a comment from the bank inside your notes. While editing,
type [ and start typing a comment's text to
search for it. Select the comment from the dropdown and a linked chip will be
inserted. Clicking the chip in read mode jumps to that comment in the bank.
The same is available via the slash command: type /comment link to open the search without the [ shortcut.
