While students often submit activities themselves, there may be scenarios where a student isn't able to log in directly.
Teachers have the option to submit an activity on a student's behalf. The process to do so depends whether you have enabled the Activity 'Quick Review' feature.
When should you use the Quick Review feature for Activities?
If you are creating an activity that will primarily be submitted by teachers on behalf of students, we recommend enabling Activity 'Quick Review'. This option allows you to add content for a student and assess proficiency levels, all in one step:
Open the Activities tab
Click on the activity name
Click on the first student you want to add content for
Fill in a title, post description, and attach any media (up to 10 attachments)
Add proficiency levels to any curriculum tags on the activity (optional)
Click Save & Next to save the submission and proficiencies as a draft and move directly to the next pending student, or click the menu button (three dots) to access other options
Submitted - update the submission to 'Submitted' status, if you still want to go back and potentially update proficiencies later
Reviewed - update to 'Reviewed,' if you have already finished assessing the content and want to lock the proficiencies
Reviewed and Published - publishes the post right away, which also updates the submission to 'Reviewed' status
Proficiencies are also locked within the Activity for Published submissions, but can be updated by teachers on the Post.
As you edit the submission, any changes are regularly auto-saved. If there are no changes that haven't already been saved, the 'Save & Next' button may be disabled or replaced with a 'Draft Saved' confirmation.
If so, you can click on the menu button (three dots) to access the Submitted / Reviewed / Reviewed and Published options, or click the arrows to the right or left of the student's name to switch to another student while leaving the updates as a draft.
If you are using the original version:
Open the Activities tab
Click on the activity name
Click the Start Activity button on the right for a student (or Edit Activity, if there is already a draft submission)
Fill in a title, post description, and attach any media
Click Submit at the top right
Carefully review the confirmation box to ensure you are submitting for the correct student, then click Yes, Submit
When submitting an activity for a student, you'll see a banner at the top with the student's name:
Apart from this, submitting as a teacher works exactly the same way as it would for a student:
It's not possible to submit the activity if the Space is not active for students
Proficiency levels can't be added to the post during the submission process - if this option is enabled, you can add them when reviewing the submission after completing the steps above
After submitting on the student's behalf, you'll be returned to the activity - from there, you can repeat the steps for any other students as needed, or go ahead with reviewing the new submission
