What happens when I send the assignment?

Understanding what happens after sending an assignment—from student notifications to marking and follow-up.

Once you send an assignment, all recipients receive an email notification. The assignment will also appear in their dashboard when they log in.

For Book assignment and Question Assignment

  • When the deadline has passed, the assignment will be automatically marked and a report with the assignment results will be sent to your email.

  • The assignment results will be available in the Insights tab, where you can track student performance and progress in more detail.

For Exam-style question assignment or Test practice questions

  • Your submission instructions will be helpful for students to understand how you plan to mark/assess/collect the assignment: You might ask them to hand in sheets with their answers, complete the tasks in groups, or maybe the students are not required to hand in their answers.

  • When the deadline has passed, the assignment will not be marked by Kognity, however, you will be able to see which students have 'opened' the assignment. This gives you a quick overview of those students who are aware of the task and those who need an additional nudge to get started.

  • For grading and feedback, you will need to follow up with students individually by marking their assignments by hand and discussing the included mark schemes.
