Adding an assignment in the LMS

Here’s a general guide on adding assignments in Aamused LMS, based on common LMS functionalities:

1. Accessing the Assignment Creation Tool:

  • Navigate to your Aamused course.
  • Look for a section or button labeled “Assignments,” “Activities,” or “Content Creation.” This might be located on the course homepage or within a course management menu.
  • Select the option to create a new assignment.

2. Defining Assignment Details:

  • Title: Enter a clear and descriptive title for your assignment relevant to the Aamused course content.
  • Instructions: Provide detailed instructions for students explaining what they need to do for the assignment. Include rubrics or grading criteria if applicable.
  • Submission Type: Choose how students will submit their work. This could be:
    • Text entry box within the LMS.
    • File upload (specify allowed file types like documents, presentations, or images).
  • Due Date and Time: Set a clear deadline for when students must submit their assignments.

3. Additional Options (Depending on Aamused LMS):

  • Groups: If using groups in your Aamused course, allow students to submit assignments as a group.
  • Availability: Set dates when the assignment is available for students to see and work on.
  • Late Submissions: Determine how late submissions will be handled (penalty deductions, accepted without penalty, etc.).
  • Rubrics: Use a rubric to define grading criteria for different aspects of the assignment.

4. Saving and Publishing:

  • Once you’ve filled in the details, save your assignment as a draft or publish it immediately to make it visible to students.

Tips:

  • Be clear and specific in your assignment instructions.
  • Set realistic deadlines considering the complexity of the assignment.
