EDUCATOR ADD-ON

Manage Groups. Build Rubrics. Track Progress.

Analytic rubrics for consistent grading. Student groups for organizing cohorts. Per-group distribution with reporting that goes beyond completion to show where students are excelling and where they need help.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Educator Transforms Your Workflow

The free plugin handles submissions and grading beautifully. Educator adds capabilities for instructors managing real classrooms: analytic rubrics for consistent, structured grading; student groups for organizing cohorts and sections; assignment distribution with progress tracking so you always know who’s done what and when; data cleanup so you stay organized; and visual reporting that turns grading data into actionable insights.

BUILD

Clear Grading Rubrics

Break each assignment down into the criteria that actually matter. For each criterion, define performance levels with point values. Students understand how they’ll be graded, and so do you.

What you can build:

  • Unlimited criteria per rubric with titles, descriptions, and point values
  • Optional performance levels with labels, descriptions, and points per level

GRADE

Click a Level. Grade faster.

When you open a submission, the rubric appears alongside the document viewer. Click the radio button for each criterion’s performance level and the point value applies automatically. Override any score when you need to—the structure is a guide, not a rule.

What makes grading faster:

  • Select performance levels with a single click per criterion
  • Automatic total score calculation across all criteria
  • Per-criterion feedback fields

TRANSPARENCY

Students See How They'll Be Graded

When a rubric is attached to an assignment, students see it on the assignment page before they submit. Each criterion, each point value, each level—all visible up front. That means no surprises, no guessing, no “what is she looking for?”.

What students see:

  • A clean “How this assignment will be graded” panel on the assignment page
  • After grading: a per-criterion breakdown showing which level was selected, points awarded, and criterion-specific feedback

ORGANIZE

Student Groups

Create groups for sections, cohorts, training programs, or however you organize students. Add members individually or in bulk. If you use LearnDash, PressPrimer Assignment fully supports its group system as well.

What you can do:

  • Create unlimited groups
  • Add WordPress users individually or in bulk
  • Get full LearnDash Groups support
  • View member counts and activity at a glance

DISTRIBUTE

Group A on Friday. Group B on Monday.

Distributing an assignment takes a few clicks. Pick the groups, set the dates, and you’re done. And because dates are set per group, the same assignment can go to multiple groups on different schedules.

Per-group controls:

  • Available-from date
  • Due date (independent from availability, unique to each group)
  • Per-student overrides with instructor notes
  • Allow or block late submissions per group

FRONTEND

A Dashboard for Your Students

Drop the Assigned Assignments block or shortcode onto any page to give students a clear view of what’s due, what’s open, and what’s been graded.

What students see:

  • All their assigned assignments in one place
  • Due dates specific to their group
  • Status indicators
  • Direct links to open or continue each assignment

REPORT

See How Every Cohort Is Doing

Group Completion Reports turn the grading you’ve already done into the answers you actually need. Open any group to see submission status, average score, completion rate, and late submission rate at a glance. Drill into a status grid that shows exactly who’s behind on what.

What you’ll see:

  • Stat cards with key data
  • Charts for status and scores
  • Student listing with individual status
  • Drill-down student detail report

ANALYZE

Diagnose Where Students Need Help

Group Completion Reports show you who’s behind. Per-Criteria Grade Breakdown shows you what they’re struggling with. For any rubric-graded assignment, see how the cohort performed criterion by criterion: average score per criterion, level distribution, and which criteria are dragging the overall grade down.

What you’ll see:

  • Average score and weighting for every criterion
  • Drill down to performance levels

MAINTAIN

Keep Your Assignment Data Healthy

Long-running sites accumulate clutter: abandoned assignments, resubmissions, old files, you name it. Educator includes a dedicated cleanup toolkit that finds and removes that data safely, with previews and dry-run mode before anything is touched.

What’s included:

  • Orphan finder for abandoned drafts
  • Storage scanner
  • Old attachments cleanup with configurable retention thresholds
  • Preview every change before deletion
