Solution

The Import tool allows you to upload material that’s in a Word document into Thinkscape. However, your material may not be in a Word document to begin with, or it may be easier to upload the content manually for complex formatting. 
To upload material into Thinkscape you will first need to add a new step in the lab by clicking the “Add Step” button on the right side of the screen. 
Once you have added a new step you can add an item to this step by clicking the “Add Item” button. 
This allows you to add content, videos, files, and inline assessments. You can add content by pasting the material from your format to Thinkscape or you can add multimedia content by sending it to the server.

To view a student’s report, click on the green box in the row of the student you wish to view. This will open the submitted report. The report is displayed in sections in the same order as the lab steps.

Comments can be added to each section individually to give feedback to the student.

The inline assessment answers are listed, and can be marked under each question. Again, comments can be included for each assessment.

At the end of the report, you can complete the marks under each category of the rubric. When you have completed all the marks and comments, click submit marks. The student will receive their grade and comments, and the dashboard will now include this grade.
