Is there a way to give access to submissions in an assignment to all students?

Answers

  • Hi @Inge.S.684 . If you mean that all students in a course should be able to see each others submissions, then the answer is no. Without knowing your use case, I can guess to recommend using the Discussions tool as an alternative; it allows file attachments, can be assessed by the instructor, and can be viewed by all.

    Hi @Craig.R.185 can you also give me some tips on how to use discussions in a good way for this purpose? Is there to also give feedback and grades like in assignment for the faculty?

  • Certainly, @Inge.S.684 . Create the Discussion topic with guidance from our Brightspace Guided Training for Instructors course, https://community.desire2learn.com/d2l/le/lessons/14828/lessons/170907. The topic description should probably be the instructions for the assignment. To make the topic gradable, you'll need to make sure you change the "Grade Out Of" value to something other than "Ungraded" as below:

    Learners will then post their assignment as a thread, as shown in this Brightspace Tutorials video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nJ7DAlJXgw&list=PLxHabmZzFY6k04NnOD0XJqWwJWcesCN12&index=13

    They can choose to paste the text of their work in the discussion box (Brightspace Editor) or attach it as a file. Once posted, everyone else in the class will be able to see it and "reply" (comment).

    When you want to evaluate it, you can follow the steps in the Evaluate a Discussion topic in the Brightspace Guided Training for Instructors course: https://community.desire2learn.com/d2l/le/lessons/14828/topics/174009

    Learners won't be able to see your evaluations, only you and the individual you evaluate can see this, unless you duplicate it as a reply to the learner's post/submission.

    I hope this is helpful. Let me know any questions.
