Once you’ve created an ActiveLearn group, you can create an assignment for your students
to tackle. Creating an assignment is easy. First, click
on the Assignments tab in the menu bar at the top of the screen.
On the Assignments page that now opens, select ‘Create a new assignment.‘
You then have a simple, three-step process to follow. First, select the group that this
assignment will target. Then, using the simple drop-down menus, navigate
to the area of the course that you would like to focus on.
Once you have decided on the course category and sub-category for this component, ActiveLearn
will then display the exercises available for each grade.
You then simply select your chosen exercises, using the preview link if you wish to sample
the exercises before assigning. Next, you need to decide which students you
would like this assignment to be sent to.
Either select individual students, or use the ‘Select all’ button to send the assignment
to everybody in the group. When you have finished, click on ‘Review and schedule’.
Now you need to review and schedule your assignment. First, give your assignment a title, then
select the start date for your assignment and the due date. You
can also give specific instructions to guide your students through the assignment.
Once you are happy that your assignment is ready, simply click on the ‘Set assignment
now’ button. Your assignment has now been created and sent
to each of the selected students.
You can keep track of this assignment via your assignment home page.
