Multiple-question assignments can be setup with an online access window in the Student Portal. By default, no student can access a Gradient assignment online until there is a Turn In or Review window setup by the teacher. Read on below to learn about the settings available:
- Download the Student Portal Getting Started Guide for reference to use while setting up online access.
- Download the Student Portal Guide for Students to guide their first time use.
- The steps below are also required for mapped Gradient assignments where students will Turn In or Review via Canvas / Schoology.
Prepare for Student Portal
Prior to setting up online access, remember to:
1. Create a Multiple Question assignment.
2. Add attachments if you want students to view a PDF of the assignment, a rubric, or any other materials during the Turn In or Review windows.
Setup Access Windows
From within an assignment, select the Student Portal icon on either the Keys or Responses tab.
1. Begin by typing the name of the class(es) or student(s) you would like to have online access. 2. Decide if you want a TURN IN window by toggling the switch on the right on (blue) or off (grey). Enter your preferred testing window dates and times (teachers typically pick a 60-90 minute block that matches their class period or subject area block) for the class(es) or student(s) selected. 3. Decide if you want a REVIEW window by toggling the switch on the right on (blue) or off (grey). Enter your preferred review window dates and times. |
