Phase 4.2 Importing Results

After grading, Uflo provides a score breakdown for each question. You can download:
  • A Report with student responses and score breakdown grouped by student or question.
  • A of all scores for each student and question.
To view detailed results in Uflo, navigate to Import To Uflo and click Import All Submissions. Any students who fail to import will appear in a dropdown with the reason.
The student signed up with a different email than the one in the roster. They can fix this by adding their student ID in Settings.
The student hasn’t signed up for Uflo. Ask them to enroll in the course.
Once issues are resolved, click Import Remaining Submissions.
Adding New Submissions After Initial GradingNavigate back to the Before Grading page, click the Scans tab, and Add Scans. Verify the import and click Grade Submissions → Grade Remaining Submissions → Import Remaining Submissions.

Phase 4.3 Reviewing Results

After import, open the assessment to view distribution graphs. AI grading is highly accurate but instructor review is essential, especially for nuanced or ambiguous responses.
  • Review 5–10% of the highest and lowest scoring submissions, as well as the lowest performing questions.
    • Use keyboard shortcuts to navigate quickly: press to move between questions, to move between students, and M to activate manual grading mode.
  • Look for a symmetric grade distribution without too many students clustered at the top or bottom. Raw scores can be later.
  • If using multiple exam versions, verify that score distributions are similar across them.
Uflo’s AI grading typically achieves 98% accuracy on short answer questions, with a range of 95–99% depending on question complexity and rubric clarity.During your review, estimate accuracy by counting how many scores you disagree with out of the sample you checked:
  • Below 95% accuracy: The rubric likely has an issue. See Refining Rubrics to diagnose the problem, update the rubric, and regrade. This takes minutes and is highly effective.
  • 95–99% accuracy: The rubric is working well. Address remaining discrepancies during the student regrade request window, where students can flag specific issues for your review.
Review Scores Before ReleasingIf you detect issues with the grading, the problem is usually the rubric. See Refining Rubrics to diagnose and fix common rubric problems before releasing grades.
