Outstanding!!! Keep them coming!

Hi All!

I have an update on this idea! We are cooking on an Assignment Center update for Students that we plan to release ahead of the 2017/2018 school year! 

With this release, we're going to make a better distinction between labels and actions. We'll also be adding the grade book status' so Students will be able to clearly see what has been marked as Incomplete or Missing by their Teachers. 

Here's a sneak peek at the prototype:

I apologize that our timeline slipped from what I predicted above. We realized that it made more practical sense to time this update with our transition to the SKY UX look and feel. 

Let me know what you think about the prototype and if we're on the right track to making the Assignment Center an even more useful tool for your students and getting this very popular idea closed out!

Thanks!

There was an initial response of a projected time of Spring 2016... Wanted to follow up on its progress.

Thanks,

I agree that leaving the teacher view yellow would be great. Green should mean completely done for both teacher and student, but right now it does not. Thanks!

Any updates on this set of Assignment improvements? Last I heard it was slated for Q2 2016. Will these features be ready for fall 2016?

This is extremely important for students.  Graded could mean it is done or it could mean a 0 for not being handed in.  Students really rely on the assignments screen.  This would be a great change!

Hi All,

Thank you so much for brining this to my attention! The plan is to work in some BB K12 Community requests for Assignments some time in Quarter 2 of 2016 (Spring).

I'll keep you posted on the progress as we get a little closer. 

Thanks!

I'd like teacher view to stay yellow also until the incompletes are removed. It's a good visual reminder that you need to go back and grade the remaining work.

The teacher view should remain as red also, so that we know that someone still has an assignment out there to be completed.

Agreed!  That would be very helpful!

Yes 

Yes, I agree!

This is true for both the student and teacher view. :-( 

I with you!

Yes, and even better would be a "redo" checkbox in the grading window that displays "redo" to the student.  (By the same token, non-dropbox assignments should not automatically switch to "overdue" if the teacher doesn't grade it immediately.)

Yes, I agree!
