Review the short list of key settings in Moodle to check before making assessment submission points available to students.
The checklist is based on frequently report issues experienced by students when submitting assignments, and by staff when providing grades and feedback.
Many of these problems can be difficult or impossible to resolve after submission have been made, but can be easily avoided by checking key settings when creating assignments.
| Setting |
|---|
|
Due date is within office hours. |
| Students have guidance on what to do if something goes wrong |
|
Course office or module leader contact details are available |
| If access to the assignment is restricted before the opening date, you have checked on the day that it’s accessible. |
| If the submission point is on a separate module, the module is available to students. |
| Appropriate groups and groupings have been created and applied |
| A separate submission point has been set up for groups with extensions/extra time. |
| Separate submission points for groups with extensions/extra time are hidden from other students with User Profile Restrictions and not groups. |
| Include a statement in the assessment specifications/papers and any relevant handbooks to clarify to students whether generative AI is permitted and if so, how it is permitted. |
