Score Offline Assessments
Some Great Minds curricula contain assessments that can be assigned to students in the platform, but students cannot complete them online. Students will complete these assessments offline/on paper, and teachers will score them digitally for reporting purposes. These assessments include:
- Arts & Letters: Module Tasks, End-of-Module Tasks, Module Listening Comprehension Assessments
- PhD Science Texas: Engineering Challenges, Science Challenges, Capstone Projects
- Wit & Wisdom: End of Module Assessments, Focusing Question Tasks
Teachers will first assign the assessment to the desired class section(s). They can immediately begin scoring once the assessment has been assigned.
Navigate to the Assigned tab on the Assessments page, and select Score to begin scoring.

You have two options when scoring the assessment:
- Score by Question: Score a single question at a time for all students
- Score by Student: Score the entire assessment for a single student before moving on to score the next student.
