Set an assignment and collect submissions

Assignments are the everyday graded work on a course: an essay, a problem set, a project, a lab report. Scholiq tracks the brief, every submission, and the grade.

Goal​

By the end you will have published an assignment, seen learners submit to it, and graded at least one submission.

Prerequisites​

  • The course exists and has enrolments (see Create a course and Enrol students).
  • You have a Rubric or Grade scale to grade against, or you accept Scholiq's default Numeric 0–100 scale.

Steps​

  1. Open Scholiq and click Assignments in the left navigation. The list view shows every assignment across every course you teach.

  2. Click Add Item. The new-assignment dialog opens — fill in Title, Brief (markdown), Due date, Max grade and pick a Rubric if you have one. Pick the Course the assignment belongs to.

  3. Click Save. The assignment shows up in the Assignments list and on each enrolled learner's home view. Learners submit via Submit work on their assignment view.

Verification​

The assignment cycle is complete when: the submission's status moves from pending to graded (or returned), the learner sees the grade and feedback on their home view, and the grade appears under the course's Grades tab.
