How to make your activity auto-scored/auto-graded

As you draw response areas onto your worksheet with the Multiple Choice, Checkbox, and True / False tools, you indicate the correct answer(s) by clicking in the box/circle next to it.


For every other auto-scored question type on TeacherMade, the process requires that you use the tool to create your response area. Then, click on the blue “Edit Tool” tab that appears below the toolbar.

For the purpose of this example, we’ll use the Short Answer response type.


Once you have inserted the answer box, select the blue tab that appears on your toolbar which says ‘Edit Short Answer.’

You will be presented with this prompt:

Here you can change the number of points to be anything from 1-10 and list up to 10 correct answer choices. Once you fill this out, select “Save Changes” and the question will be auto-graded when a student submits!

It’s as easy as that! We hope you enjoy!:slight_smile:
