Assignments in the elementary experience - instructors (enterprise)

The elementary experience provides a workflow for students submitting assignments. Teachers create assignments in the elementary experience in the same way as their other courses and can choose up to five submission types.

The elementary theme must be enabled in your course to use the Elementary Experience assignment workflow. If the Course Theme option is not available in your course settings, contact PowerSchool Support.

Student view

Students can take a photo, record audio or video, upload a file, type on their device, and submit to the assignment.

Reviewing and grading submissions

Teachers can review and grade submissions as they do with assignments in non-elementary-themed courses.

You can access an ungraded assignment from the Reminders section on your home page, or you can click the name of the student in the Submissions column on the assignment page.

From there, you can: 

• Toggle between submissions by students in the course.
• Toggle between revisions submitted by the selected student.
• Grade the current submission and provide a comment (syncs with the gradebook).
• Provide feedback and upload files back to the student.
