It is possible to create iterative assignments - where the piece of work is graded by the teacher, re-edited by the student, re-graded and so on using any of the three online assignment types: [[Upload a single file assignment|single file]], [[Online text assignment|online text]] and [[Advanced uploading of files assignment|advanced uploading]].  In the first two this is achieved by allowing resubmitting in the assignment settings and in the latter by using the revert to draft option.

Assignment Icon.gif The assignment module allows teachers to collect work from students, review it and provide feedback including grades.

Students can submit any digital content (files), including, for example, word-processed documents, spreadsheets, images, audio and video clips. Assignments don't necessarily have to consist of file uploads. Alternatively, teachers can ask students to type directly into Moodle using an online text assignment. There is also an offline activity assignment which can be used to remind students of 'real-world' assignments they need to complete and to record grades in Moodle for activities that don't have an online component.

Assignment Types

There are 4 types of assignments:

  1. Upload a single file
  2. Advanced uploading of files (1.7 onwards) - options include: multiple file submission, allowing students to type a message alongside their submission & returning a file as feedback.
  3. Online text - students type directly into Moodle, teachers can provide inline feedback.
  4. Offline Activity - teachers provide a description and due date for an assignment outside of Moodle. A grade & feedback can be recorded in Moodle.

Iterative Assignments

It is possible to create iterative assignments - where the piece of work is graded by the teacher, re-edited by the student, re-graded and so on using either the single file or the online text and 'allowing resubmitting' in the assignment settings.
