Results Maintenance - Assessment (legacy) window

You can use either the Assessment (legacy) or Assessment window to view or modify results for any student belonging to the assessment code of the class you are currently processing.

Tip: The Assessment window has several advantages over the Assessment (legacy) window including keyboard-only entry, simultaneous marking with other staff members, faster operation and automatic saving. See Results Maintenance - Assessment window.

For example, if 07MATHSR, 07MATHSF and 07MATHSJ all have an assessment code of 07MATHS, you can assess all these classes at the same time.
