Assignments

The Assignments tool enables you to create, manage, and distribute activities that serve to assess students in meaningful ways beyond traditional objective tests. The Grade Center's organization and management capabilities are incorporated into the Assignments tool and allow instructors to efficiently provide feedback and grades to students.

Assignment Basics

The Assignments tool enables instructors to create, distribute, and collect assignment submissions. Instructors can create varied assignments for students, such as case studies, problem-based learning exercises, essays and research papers, and group projects.

This section contains help links on topics that address how to access, review, and grade the assignments you have created in your course. You can also learn how to download submissions to review offline, add feedback for students, and include notes and files for yourself.

Student Experience

In this section, you will learn how the Assignments tool is accessed by students. Your familiarity with the students' point of view will help you make choices about selecting assignment types and how you will provide assignments and instructions to course groups you may create.
