After the lab is finished, every student should complete a post-lab assignment that both reinforces the lessons learned in the lab and assesses students' understanding of the material individually. Post-lab assignments should not be available to students until after the lab period is over.

Rescore Assignments for Courses

If a problem with assignment scoring affects many students in one or more sections of your class, rescore the assignment for the entire class. For LMS-integrated courses, a rescore also syncs scores to your LMS. Rescoring is faster than a manual sync because it syncs only the rescored assignments.

Rescore Assignments for Affected Students

If a problem with assignment scoring affects only one or a few students, do not rescore the assignment for the entire class. Instead, rescore the assignment just for the affected students. For LMS-integrated courses, a rescore also syncs scores to your LMS. Rescoring is faster than a manual sync because it syncs only the rescored assignments.
