Bongo - New Question Generation and Smart Scoring features now available for Bongo AI Coach | New
Bongo has updated the Virtual Classroom and Video Assignment tools. Bongo now provides suggested Q&A questions and response criteria (if using Smart Scoring) for the assignment based on reference material supplied by instructors. Instructors can use questions and response criteria as is or modify the selected questions and response criteria before saving the assignment.
The Q&A assignment type now includes the Smart Scoring evaluation type. When using this type, instructors can determine if they want to review the Smart Scoring evaluation, or if they want to publish scores automatically after the evaluation is complete. For more information about this Bongo update, refer to Bongo Help Center Current Release Notes.
Quizzes – Optimize productivity with an improved quiz evaluation experience | New
Grading workflows are now optimized in the quiz evaluation experience to improve instructor productivity. The new quiz evaluation experience can now be turned on in the quiz page you are grading.
Instructors can click the down arrow on the top right of the page to expand the dialog used to turn on or turn off the new quiz evaluation experience.
The dialog indicates if the experience is on or off and provides buttons to turn it on or off.
After instructors have opted into the new experience, they can scroll between learners and select the quiz attempt they want to evaluate.
In the new quiz evaluation experience, instructors can use the right and left arrows to select the learner and then select the quiz attempt they want to evaluate from the drop-down list.
In the main assessment area, there are two panels, which is consistent with other updated experiences in Falcon Online.
The following question types are supported in the new quiz evaluation experience:
- Multiple choice
- Written response
- True or false
- Short answer
- Fill in the blank
- Multi-select
- Question pools
If an instructor or student attempts to use an unsupported question type, an alert message appears. The message indicates that the question type is not supported and provides a link to switch to the Classic quiz evaluation experience.
❗All other question types (matching, arithmetic, significant figures, and multi-short answers) are not currently supported.
On the left panel, instructors can filter by Pending evaluation or Retaken questions only and view attempt details, quiz questions, and answers. From this area, the instructor can leave feedback for specific quiz sections.
The Filters drop-down enables instructors to see questions that are Pending evaluation, or Retaken questions only.
On the right panel, instructors can enter or review the grade and feedback for the quiz attempt, or use other quiz management options, such as Edit Quiz, Preview Quiz, Reset Evaluation, and Quizzes Event Log, in the Evaluation Options menu.
Instructors can update the Attempt Grade, add Attempt Feedback, or use the Evaluation Options menu to Edit Quiz, Preview Quiz, Reset Evaluation, or view the Quizzes Event Log.
This continuous delivery update is scheduled for September 26th. Please refer to the Falcon Online for Faculty InfoGuide for additional information on all the Falcon Online tools.
