Do students see a “Gradebook” link on their WebTycho class menu, as I do?
NO. Where instructors see “Gradebook” on the class menu, students see “Assignments Folder” (see menu examples at right); HOWEVER, the two areas are NOT IDENTICAL in appearance or function !!!! Students’ Assignments Folders function as a creation center and “drop box” for private, individual assignments. They list only the items instructors have selected in Manage Gradebook to be “Available” there, i.e., as items students should submit privately. Each item in the students’ Assignments lists (see sample below) has a link that opens a text submission form, similar to a Conference topic creation form. The student can type or paste text in the form and/or attach a file and then save or submit for grading. The WebTycho User Guide provides Student Instructions for Assignments.
