assignments. Using algorithmically-generated questions within assignments creates multiple versions of questions as well since the values in an algo question change each time the question is accessed. Assignment Editor Step 3: Set Policies In the Set Policies tab of the Assignment Editor screen, you can: • Select the type of assignment • Decide when to make it available to your class • Set feedback options for the assignment • Establish other grading policies Type of Assignment. Assignments for Credit (Results are Recorded) To access the for-credit assignments, students must log in. Performance results of student sessions are recorded in your class Gradebook after students click Grade in the assignment. For these categories of assignments, students can also return to view their assignment results (with exactly the same algorithmic data values) in the future. • The default assignment type is Homework or Quiz. • Other assignments for credit are Proctored Exams. Practice Assignment Types (Results are not Recorded) The Anonymous Practice assignment type allows students to practice. Practice Assignments do not require a student login for access and graded results are not recorded in the Gradebook. Students cannot return to view their results later. Homework or Quiz Assignment Options • Always rework the same assignment on return – enabling this option ensures the student will always get the same questions each time regardless of whether the assignment uses algorithmic variables or scrambling. • Show grade for prior responses – used with reworkable assignments, this allows the student to see which questions were correct and incorrect on that student’s previous attempt when reworking the assignment. • Printable version – allows the student to print the assignment to work offline. The student must return to the assignment to enter their answers in order to have their work graded. Proctored Exam Assignment Options Making an assignment a Proctored Exam means that before a student can submit the assignment for grading, someone with a proctor log-in must enter his or her unique proctor password to authorize the grading of the assignment (see the discussion of Managing Proctors later in this guide). Enabling the option “Also require proctor sign-in to start session” means that students will not be able to begin 2006, 2007 © 10
