How students can upload documents to assignments

Types of assignments

There are several activities in Moodle that can be graded, its possible to grade Forum contributions, Feedback activity, Attendance, Quizzes, etc, but the main assignments where you upload a file is called a Standard Assignment and a Turnitin Assignment, both have similarities but are very different. Take a closer look at Turnitin here.

Step 1

Log into Moodle and navigate to the module where you are expected to upload your work.

Step 2

Navigate to the section where the assignment is located.

Note: the name of the section and the actual assignment will vary from module to module, some lecturers will use a standard Moodle assignment others will use a Turnitin assignment, some will use both, it really depends on the module topics and the assessment you are being asked to do.

Step 3

Click into the Assignment you will see the due date, this is important to note, you will be able to make submissions or edit your submission all the way up to the due date and time.
