Assignments

Graded assignments such as exams, essays, reports, projects, problem sets, or even presentations can all be managed online. Prepare well-structured assignments and provide clear descriptions so that your students can successfully complete the course activities. In online courses, it is even more important that assignments be clearly described because students will not have the opportunity to ask for clarification face-to-face. 

Your LMS allows you to create assignments, quizzes, and exams. Students can upload their work to the LMS, and it can be graded within the LMS. For student work that is typically written or drawn by hand, a student can photograph it and upload the images.
