Goobric Web App Launcher Extension

To be used in tandem with the Doctopus Add-on for Google Sheets, the Goobric web app enables flexible, efficient rubric-based grading of Google Drive resources (Documents, Presentations, Spreadsheets, Folders, etc.) Doctopus is a popular assignment distribution and management tool available from any Google Sheet from the Add-ons menu->just search the Add-ons store for \"Doctopus.\"

The Goobric web app provides teachers a handy assessment toolbar -- in the same browser tab as the Google Drive assignment being evaluated! -- that includes a clickable scoring tool tied to any grid-style rubric, comments, and audio-comments recording. Submitted scores can be auto-emailed to students, pasted into the bottom of a Google Document, and are automatically transferred to the Google Sheet that holds your assignment roster. Includes \"Back\" and \"Next\" buttons that allow teachers to efficiently advance through a batch of student assignments, all without leaving the same browser tab.

Rubrics should be built as a simple spreadsheet grid. They can be of any dimension or content. Headers can be integer scores (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4, ... or ...4,3,2,1) -OR- text descriptors (e.g. Developing, Meets, Exceeds) starting in column 2 and skills/competencies must be in rows, with skill titles in column 1.

Pamela Weinstein (ID: 00000020dc15017c) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 03/22/2018 Used to love it, but now it is so slow. I have almost all essays done, but can't really get to the rest. Don't know what I will do. Please fix yourself, Goobric!

Lisa Douglas (ID: 000000e960c3f873) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/19/2018 I have used this for a couple of years now. Currently. when I hit submit after assessing a student's work, I will get the following error: Uh oh (my login info is here) It appears you don't have access to this student file. This can happen if you're using multi-account login, or if a student deletes or unshares you on a file you don't own. Try logging out of all accounts and logging back into the Google account you used to create this assignment. When I logout and login again I continue to get the same problem.

Christine Jankul-Tavchar (ID: 000000abb4c0a7b4) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/13/2018 Loved the efficiency and ability to email marks as well as keep all originals so that I can resend at any time, however Gobric has hit a strange snag. First time I used it (2 months ago) it worked very well. Now, after I hit submit or next, or prev), the page never loads. I have to open all the assignments in different tabs and mark them that way. Each time I hit submit, the pages loads indefinitely. The marks do get transferred back to the Google Sheet, so no data seems to be lost but it is troubling...
