I want students to be able to submit assignments online as a file OR on paper. It seems that to do this I have to set the assignment type to Online. Unfortunately, this then means that even if I have entered marks for work submitted on paper the assignment status will change to "Missing" when the due date arrives. This can be manually returned to "None" but not until after the due date. I feel we desperately need a "Submitted" status. Am I missing something?
Hi Keith Oatley
Not sure that this is possible - but, you could include a text entry as well as a file upload in the submission type. Then ask students who submit on paper to write a note in the text entry that they have submitted on paper. Then something would appear and the date of submission would be seen too. Its not what you want exactly but I think this would work.
