How to use the WebCT Assignments Tool
What is the Assignments tool?
The Assignments tool enables unit coordinators to provide assignment
instructions and additional resources for students
to download, complete and upload for marking.
The Assignment tool can be accessed by using the Assignments
icon, which may look like:
Back to Top
Accessing Assignment Details.
Clicking on the Assignments icon allows you to access a list
of all assignments.
Assignments are listed in order of availability,
with the most recently due assignment at the top.
The Display menu allows you to select which assignments
to choose - available, due soon or late. Late assignments
are indicated with an alarm-watch icon and a red
"Late" notification.
To view assignment details,
- Select the Assignment title e.g. Project Proposal
The Assignment Information provides details that
have been specified by the unit coordinator. There
may be additional Assignment Files which provide
further instruction or are to be used in your assignment.
Back to Top
Viewing Assignment Related Files.
If the unit coordinator has included additional resources, these
will be listed under the Assignment files heading.
To view assignment files:
Depending on your browser, the file will display or will save
to your computer. If you choose to save the file,
you will need to open it with the appropriate software
for the file format e.g. word processing software
for an .rtf file.
Back to Top
Submitting Assignments.
To submit your assignment,
- From the Assignment listing, select the assignment you want
to submit e.g. Project Proposal.
In the Submit
Assignment area,
- Select Upload File to browse to your computer's
hard drive and select your assignment.
At this stage, you can preview your submitted assignment
by clicking on the filename. If you need to remove
your uploaded file(s), select the file checkbox and
click Remove files. Once you have uploaded all
necessary files,
- Select Submit Assignment.
Your assignment submission will be confirmed.
Back to Top
Checking Assignment Results.
Once your unit coordinator or tutor has marked your assignment,
you can use the Assignment tool to check your results.
- Select the Assignments icon to view the Assignment listing.
- Select the Graded link, beside the Status
heading.
You will now be able to view the results of your
project, download your assignment file and read comments
from the marker.
