Within the Clinical Grading tab, there are "Professionalism" and "Manage Other Assessment Scores" buttons that allow coordinators to enter or upload scores that will be used in determining a student's required clerkship grade.

Professionalism

Within this window, coordinators can answer the questions related to the Professionalism of each student, as well as enter a comment. A "Batch Assign" option is available to quickly assign answers in bulk, if desired.

Manage Other Assessment Scores

Within this window, coordinators can 'build' a form by selecting one or more Types of assessment scores and clicking the "Add Manually" button. This creates a column for each type, where scores can be entered for each student. 

Alternatively, coordinators can use the Upload feature to make the process go more quickly. The CSV must use this template, and each score type must be entered on a separate CSV. To upload assessment scores:

1. Click on Manage Other Assessment Scores
2. Select a type
3. Click Upload. The Upload panel will appear
4. Click Choose File to select the file from your computer that has the scores for the type you chose
5. Click Upload
6. You'll see a success message, or you'll see an error message if there was an issue in the CSV to correct.
7. Continue to upload one CSV for each type of score you're uploading.

CSV Upload Troubleshooting Notes

For shelf exam scores, you can change a .txt downloaded from NMBE file to a CSV by simply changing the file extension from .txt to .csv and then it should open in Excel with all of the columns.

If you run into errors when uploading your CSV, it can be helpful to open the CSV with a simple text editor like Notepad, which will show you hidden spaces and any hidden characters that Excel may have included.

When opening the CSV in a text editor there should be no space before or after the commas, and only the one comma between each data point in each row.
