A number of options may be appropriate for your submission:
Write text directly in the Content editor
Add Math symbols by Clicking on the
button > Math
Submit a file or embed an image by clicking the attachment icon (paperclip) or drag and drop images and documents into the Submission field. (Note: you can also ‘share’ your assignment from your OneDrive account - embed the sharing link in the submission field)
Add web links using the link icon to the left of the paperclip
Upload your own video through Kaltura by Clicking on the
button > and selecting the Content market (note: do not try to embed an .mp4 directly in the submission as it will be too big)Add a YouTube video by clicking on the
button > and selecting YouTube video
Click Save and Close if you want to save a draft and continue later.
When you're ready for your instructor to grade the group work, click Submit.
Note: If you do not Submit your assignment, your instructor won't receive the completed assignment.
When you select View assessment, you can just view the group assignment or add some work. Select Save and Close in the panel if you are not ready to submit.
Everyone in the group can keep track of the latest version of the work. When a group member opens a group assignment, the assignment is locked so other members can't edit it. Other group members can request to work on the assignment. The member in control can approve or decline the request.
Until a member selects Submit, you can open the group assignment as many times as you want.
You can't make changes to a group assignment after you submit it.
