Assignment settings
The process of creating a choice activity is divided into two stages. The first is the specification of the basic settings, including the assignment type. In the second one, you fill in the options specific for the type of assignment you are adding.

Assignment type
There are a growing number of assignment types available:
- Upload
- A student can upload a single file. This could be a Word document, spreadsheet or anything digital. Multiple files could be zipped and then submitted.
- Online Text
- This assignment type asks users to edit a text, using the normal editing tools. Teachers can grade them online, and even add inline comments or changes.
- Offline assignment
- This is useful when the assignment is performed outside of Moodle. It could be something elsewhere on the web or face-to-face. Students can see a description of the assignment, but can't upload files or anything. Grading works normally, and students will get notifications of their grades.
