Provide the ability to annotate/comment on essay and short answer responses

Essay and short answer question responses require instructor review prior to marking
Allow instructors to provide unique comments and/or pre-configured responses etc. on highlighted text within the response and provide the ability to specify the release terms (when, all learners, subset learners) for these comments to be included in the learner report

Yes, we definitely want the ability to put comments onto papers. I have a few additional requests, based on running exams with lots of teachers.
1) Could we also please have bulk download ability of exam papers which allows the choice of all the papers in one file and also each paper in a separate file within one folder? Downloading one by one is not feasible for large classes.
2) On that note, could you please allow teachers to select which info they want to make available on those Results page downloads? Many teachers want to provide the pdf to the students and they want to show them what they wrote, but they want it to be optional whether the papers show the question or only the answer, whether it includes the images, whether it includes the case studies, and most importantly -- whether it includes the analytics. Many people don't want the student to see that they were ranked 45 out of 46 in the class. The low score may be enough. It would also be very good if we could choose whether or not to include the name of the students, as markers are supposed to be blind marking, and pdfs get sent to moderators too, who are also supposed to be blind marked. We have to spend a lot of time redacting names, mainly because we can't choose to exclude the analytics (which are full of the students' names).
3) In addition, could we please be able to filter by question type on the Learners Results page, so we can screen out the non-text-based answers while marking (and also when downloading files). We currently have to wade through the multiple choice questions while searching for the short answer questions that need to be marked.
4) Finally, for these teachers who are marking Short Answer or Essay questions and needing to Edit the score to put in the marks for hundreds of students, could we please have a way to either:
-Open one student’s whole exam and enter the scores for all the Short Answer questions all at once (rather than opening each of their questions one by one), OR
-Mark by question ie open Question 8 and then have all the students’ names against that question so you can enter the mark for each student all on one page rather than having to go student by student and question by question?
Thank you!
