Forum Higher Ed & Training Forum: Re: Submit files activity problem

Of course it is. Have a look at the attached example (example1.zip and picture)

The example1.zip sequence has a noticeboard for introduction, then a Submit Files activity in which the students can submit their first draft. So when the students reach that activity, then they can submit their first paper... you can comment and add notes about the papers. Students can see the comments (and mark if you want to have one) and rewrite the paper accordingly.

Note that I also put a Gate right after the Submit Draft activity, so students don't get ahead unless you give permission (note that you can use permission, time and output gates).

So say you have finished providing feedback to all the students' first draft, then you can open the gate and all the students get to the next activities.

The next activity I added there is a Notebook for the students to comment or to write notes on the feedback they have received for you.. like interesting points you have raised and perhaps how their thoughts on how to address them.

Then the next activity is another Submit Files that prompts the students to send their final paper.

> This seems like a quite typical sequence of events that instructors may want to perform. Is this possible in LAMS?

Indeed. Have a look at the monitoring pages for Submit Files.

Thanks,
