Item Groups

Item groups in SecureMarker allow examiners to view or mark related items at the same time. For example, items in a case study might be grouped together to ensure consistency in marking and to provide context to an examiner.

An item group must contain a minimum of two items, a maximum of ten items, and at least one item to mark. Each item in an item group is assigned individual marks. You can create and edit item groups in the Item Groups screen.

Examiners can view or mark all items in an item group when marking candidate responses in their quota. For more information, read Marking responses in SecureMarker.

NOTE: In Surpass, you can group items together so they appear on one page when delivered to candidates. For more information, read Grouping items in a test form.

This page gives an overview of the Item Groups screen of SecureMarker.
