Assignments addon

Collect student submissions with text/file types, points, deadlines, and grading.

The Assignments addon (Pro) adds an assignment content type to your curriculum, so a course can ask for submitted work, not just quizzes.

Add an assignment

With the addon active, Assignment appears in the curriculum builder’s Add Content picker (the option is visible but disabled otherwise). Selecting it opens the Assignment Editor:

Assignment Title (required)
Instructions — rich text describing the task
Submission Type — Text, File Upload, or Text + File
Assignment Settings — Status, Time Limit (with Hours/Days/Weeks), Max Points (100 by default), Min Pass Points, and toggles for Allow late submissions and Allow resubmission
For file types — File upload limit and Max file size (MB) (0 = unlimited)
Attachments — rubric or starter files for students

If a time limit is set, you can start the countdown from enrollment or from when the student clicks Start Assignment. Once a deadline passes, the assignment closes on its own — no submissions accepted after, whether or not late submissions are allowed.

New Assignment dialog with title and rich-text instructions on the left and an Assignment Settings panel on the right holding status, time limit, max points, min pass points, late-submission and resubmission toggles, and a content drip control — The Assignment Editor. **Min Pass Points** at 0 disables the pass threshold; the grade then only has to be recorded.

Student submissions

Students submit text, files, or both (uploads are restricted to a safe file-type allowlist). If resubmission is allowed, they can submit again — but only after the previous attempt is graded, up to any resubmission cap.

Grading

Submissions go to CourseGlade → Assignments, listed with Student, Assignment, Course, Submitted, Status (Pending Review / Graded / Returned / Late), and Grade. Open one to see the attempt history and, in the Grading panel, enter a Grade (up to max points) and Feedback, then Save Grade. You can also grant a one-off Allow Resubmission.

A grade must meet the Min Pass Points to mark the assignment complete. Graded work appears on the student’s My Grades tab and counts toward the course grade, and grades also flow into the Pro Gradebook addon.
