What is important in a distance learning environment, besides the virtual teaching session, is to give teachers the tools to assess the progress of students by creating, sharing and marking assignments.
Classter offers an intuitive online interface where teachers can:
- Create different types of assessment: assignments, exams, online quizzes
- Share this material to the right students with bulk actions, thus saving tons of time from having to send the assessment to each student separately.
- Mark the assessment and give feedback to students for improving their academic performance.
Teachers can find a detailed how-to guide on how to create assignments and assessments in this Knowledge Base article.
Below you can find a quick guide on how the Teacher can create assignments and how students can answer these assignments either by filling a word file or by sharing a photo from a hand-written document.
Step 1: Create the assignment
