The Defense of Learning (DoL) presentations by the fifth, eighth, and eleventh grade students at Jefferson County Public Schools are graded by a panel of 3-5 educators, including the teacher of record. Each panelist scores the presentations individually in the rubric assessment. Those scores are then averaged to calculate the student's final grade.

As an administrator or the teacher of record, you will have access to view both the individual scores that were assigned by the teacher of record and the panel averages.

  • Step 1: Navigate to Assessments and choose Assigned.

  • Step 2: Choose the class to review under Classes.

  • Step 3: Select the assessment you'd like to review to open the student list.
