After your students complete an assessment, you are able to have instant access to their results, helping you assess their understanding and guide the next steps in their learning.


Accessing Assessment Results

After assigning an assessment to a class, you can track which students have completed it and view their results by selecting the assessment - this will bring open the results page.

💡 Tip: If the assessment is still in progress, you can monitor live results in real time. To see final results, you must finish the assessment first.


Navigating the Results Page

The Live Results page of an assessment in Showbie contains information on student progress throughout the assessment. These results can be viewed as students are taking the assessment, and the results will be updated automatically.

Information Icon

Click the 'i' icon next to the assessment title to view the delivery method and settings you designated for the assessment.

Show Names, Responses, and Results

Use these toggles to show or hide students' names and answers. This helps you keep student identities and responses anonymous, especially useful if you're displaying the results page in class.

💡 Green means the option is enabled, and grey means the option is disabled.

Name

Click this column to sort names according to their last name for easy reference. You can click the column header to change the sort order!

If your room is rostered, this column will also show if a student is currently connected A dash means indicates they are not connected, whereas a green dot indicates they are connected.

Progress

You can track student progress in percentage based on how many questions they've responded to.

Question Numbers

Question numbers are shown along the top and are color coded via an underline.

  • Yellow indicates a multiple choice-type question

  • Orange indicates short answer-type and

  • Purple indicates True/False questions.

Student Responses

Green or red color-coding will indicate if students responded correct or incorrect:

  • Green means correct.

  • Red means incorrect.

Class Total

This row will indicate how many students got the question correct.

Finish Activity

Click this button to end the current assessment and from here you can generate reports.


Exporting Reports

The Export option allows you to export your results as downloadable reports. Available report formats include Complete Results Excel, Individual Student PDFs, Results Summary PDF, and Answer Key PDF.

Complete Results Excel

Export an Excel file of responses and scores for all students who took part in the activity. You can also choose to include the content of the Multiple-Choice questions in the download, if needed.

Individual Student PDFS

Export a personalized results PDF for each student who took part in the activity. You can optionally include answer explanations set when creating/editing the quiz as well as highlight the correct answers, if needed. Leaving these options toggled off (grey) will download a report without explanations or correct answers — useful when further review is needed from the students, for example.

Results Summary PDF

Export a PDF summarizing student responses and correct answers on a question-by-question basis. You can optionally include answer explanations set when creating/editing the quiz, if needed.

Distributing Results to Students

In Showbie, can distribute a personalized PDF for each student who took part in the assessment. When sending the results to the students you can choose whether or not to include Explanations and Correct Answers.

You can also distribute scores to each student, which will set the grade of the assignment that contains the assessment to the student's achieved score. You can add additional feedback alongside this score, if needed, by navigating back to the student's assignment folder and using the Add Feedback option.
