Assignment

Students hand in a file, text or links, only of the kinds you allow, with a rubric and an optional requirement.

An assignment asks students to make something and hand it in. Their work goes to the class's Submitted Assignments, where classmates can comment and vote, and to you in the Creator Dashboard under Assignments.
