DE Boot Camp: Engaging Students Day 2 .......................... Assign Almost Anything
Today's Assignment............................ First things first - Create a class
Today, we're going to begin with the assignment instead of end, because in order to assign things in Discovery, you first need to create a CLASS to assign things to.
To learn how to create a class from a roster of existing student accounts on your campus - click here to watch the video.
To learn how to create a class and create new student accounts to include in that class - click here to watch the video.
Assign anything in the media library
- Click the triangle and select "Assign to Classroom/Student"
- Enter the date you'd like the content assigned and the date it's due
- Select the class and students in that class you'd like to assign it to
- Click SAVE... and that's it! You've created an assignment in Discovery Ed.
Assign any of your own uploaded media
assign folders of anything you can gather
Assign Board Builder Boards
Note - Boards that you find in the Discovery Media Library can be assigned with the same process that you would use for assigning other media - click the triangle icon and choose Assign to Class/Student.
Assign quizzes, writing prompts, and assignments
Evaluate Student Results
To view results for a particular assignment, click the PLUS to the far left of that assignment to expand the results to the student level. This will show you the assignment grade (if it's a quiz) and date/time submitted, as well as provide you a link to the student's completed assignment. You'll also find a link to export the results for the entire class so that you can import that into your regular gradebook as needed.
Bonus tip of the day! ............................................................ All of your favorite FREE DE Resources are still here!
Want to assign a puzzle, worksheet, or activity you've created to your students through Discovery? Just print it to a PDF file and upload into your MY CONTENT and you can assign it from there.
