Course iAssign: Example

Resources to accompanying of activities

To facilitate the monitoring and development of activities in iAssign, it has three features: the status icons, details about the activity and historic of comments.

1) Status icons: Provide the state of the activity, there are four status icons (see Figure 7), one for every possible situation, which are:

• Activity measured as correct: Represents an activity that was assessed as correct, either by automatic evaluator of the iLM or the teacher's corrections.

• Activity measured as incorrect: Represents an activity that was assessed as incorrect.

• Activity posted: Represents an activity that has no auto assessment, which is submitted and awaiting correction of the teacher.

• Activity not submitted: Represents the activity that has not been sent.

2) Historic of Comments: It is a particular area for student and teacher exchange comments on a specific exercise. When the student or the teacher receives a message, a "new mail" icon will be displayed along with the activity (see Figure 7) indicating that he has unread messages in that period.
