Assignments Types
Submit Assignment: File submission
Submit Assignment: Text submission

Teachers can create multiple types of assignments with different submission procedures. This means the way in which you have to submit an assignment depends on the settings a teacher made when creating the assignment:

• File submission: you have to upload your assignment as a file (for example a Word-file, PDF-file, audio file or video file).
• Text submission: you have to enter a text, image or link to your work in a text box in the assignment (for example, if you have to create a web page this is where you can enter the link to the page).
• On paper submission: you have to hand in the assignment as a hard copy and you do not have to upload it in the assignment (this allows teachers to upload the assessment of hard copy assignments in the grade book).
• Observed in person: you perform a certain task during class (for example a presentation or assessment) and the teacher will then enter the assessment in the assignment. You do not have to upload a file in the assessment (this option allows teachers to upload the assessment of presentations and assessments during class in the grade book).

The teacher will tell you beforehand whether you have to submit the assignment in Brightspace.
