Due to vendor closure, REVIEW is not available from Spring 2024 Session. If your subject uses REVIEW and you would like support for finding alternative solutions, schedule a consultation via https://lxlabservices.uts.edu.au/. For more information, read the REVIEW closure blog post.
Learn how Subject Coordinators create assessment tasks in REVIEW.
Create a new Task
To create a new Task, open the ‘Task’ Tab and select ‘+ New Task’
- REVIEW does not display marks to students by default. See the Show mark to student setting for help on this topic
- Enable the Sync with LMS setting to enable the transfer of marks from REVIEW to Canvas
Required settings and information
Task Name – enter the name of the Task as shown in the Subject Outline
Weight – enter the amount that the Task contributes to the total mark for the subject as a percentage (e.g. 30%)
Task Criterion – choose the method used to weight Task criteria from:
- Manual: enter each Criteria’s weight as a percentage; the total Task weight must equal 100%
- Automatic: REVIEW calculates each each Criteria’s weight by dividing 100 by the number of Criteria
Slider – choose the Slider to use when grading the task; sliders display grades either:
- Equally: e.g. Fail is 0-49.99 and Pass is 50-64.99, but the box displaying each grade uses the same amount of space on the Slider
- Proportionally: e.g. Fail is 0-49.99 and the box displaying the Fail grade uses half of the available space on the Slider
Status – make a task ACTIVE when it’s ready to be marked; INACTIVE tasks may be edited but are not visible to staff or students even when marking has commenced or marks have been published
Sync with LMS – enable this setting to transfer Task marks to Canvas when Publishing marks and feedback to students
Recommended Settings
Show mark to student – enable this setting to display numeric marks to students.
Marks will only be displayed to students when the selected slider displays marks proportionally – i.e. the box displaying the Fail grade takes up exactly half of the available space on the Slider.
Show average mark – enable this setting to display the average mark indicator on the marking slider to staff (on the marking screen) and students (in results). Average task marks can still be accessed by Staff via the Reports tab.
Hide from student – enable this setting to make the task invisible to students. You can enable or disable this setting at any time, even when results have been Published.
Enable the Hide from Student setting when creating a final assessment task whose results cannot be Published until after subject results have been released.
Self-assess by student – enable this setting to allow students to grade their own work using the same criteria as teaching staff.
