  • The assignment activity is one of the tools that is used most on QMplus.  It is an incredibly powerful tool but most people are not aware of all the things that can be done with it!. The standard use of the assignment is to collect student essays or reports in the form of word documents or PDF files.  However, it is also possible to set up the assignment activity for assignments that have no online submission such as performances or presentations.

    The assignment activity also provides rich functionality for providing online feedback and grades.
