WISEflow

WISEflow is a cloud-based end-to-end digital assessment platform that supports the assessment and feedback lifecycle for students, assessors, administrators and assessment authors.

WISEflow is a role-based system which enables activities to be allocated to specific users based on the part that they play in the assessment process.

WISEflow incorporates different types of assessment known as Flows which include: 

  • FLOWassign - Tests with or without a set assignment, where participants hand in a PDF file and any appendix materials. 
  • FLOWmulti - Tests with multiple question types combined in assignments completed by the participants in an open or locked-down environment.
  • FLOWlock - Tests with a set assignment, where participants write their papers in a locked-down environment.
  • FLOWhandin - Tests with or without a set assignment, where participants can hand in all kinds of digital material.
  • FLOWoral - Oral tests where participants can be distributed into different examination periods. Participants can be assessed and receive written feedback.
  • FLOWattend - Registration of participant turnout in class (and similar.)

How to access your exam

Upon logging into WISEflow as a student, you should automatically be directed to the Participation tab. If you have an activated flow, you will see this here. Activated flows mean that flows have been made visible by your course leader, this may occur before the scheduled start time of the exam. All participants will receive an email notification when a flow has been activated.

Once a flow has been activated, participants will be able to see the status of the flow under the Participation tab.

Flow States

  1. The flow has been activated but is yet to start. Participants need to wait until the set start date and time of the flow before it can be commenced. If additional material has been added, this may be available to view.
  2. The flow has started. Participants can now begin accessing the flow by submitting work or taking an exam
  3. The flow is now closed for participation and your submitted work is being marked.
  4. The marking period has ended and participants can access the flow to view grades and feedback.
Participating in a flow

Once a flow has begun, participants will be able to click on it and will be taken to the flow page. Here participants will be able to see the start and end time of the flow, including time remaining to complete it.




 

Once the start date/ time is reached, participants will be able to see their coursework instructions in the middle of the page under "Assignment" (or exam questions for a take home/ open book exam).



 

On the right hand side of the page, participants can view more information about how the flow is being graded, who is managing the administration for the flow, and who is marking the work, if appropriate.















Participants can also see any additional material for their assignment that has been uploaded (e.g. questions for a seen exam) and access any direct messages that have been sent on the flow.        












At the bottom of the page is the area where you can upload and submit coursework or begin an exam.  Different Flows have different options, Figure 1 below shows an example of "FLOWassign" and Figure 2 shows an example of "FLOWlock" types of Flows.
