You can access assignments in the activity stream or in the calendar if your instructor added a due date.
After you select an assignment, the Details & Information panel appears. View the due date, number of attempts allowed, the time limit if imposed, and possibly goals and a rubric for grading. Check if the due date has passed and if any submissions are or will be late.
When you select Start attempt, you can view the assignment and start working on your submission. Not ready to submit? Select Save and close to save your work and close the assignment. You will be able to return to the assignment at a later date and resume your work.
After you submit an assignment or test, a modal window with tracking information appears. Copy and save this number as proof of your work, and evidence for academic disputes.
