Assignments are central in the Magma world. An assignment in its simplest form is defined as a collection of problems given to a student/group/class. In this guide you will learn how to create an assignment and tailor it after your needs.
So to create an assignment (skapa en övning), please follow these steps. And don't be afraid here, you can edit any of these steps and settings later, after the assignment is created.
Go to the Övningar (Assignments) tab and click the button Ny övning (New assignment) on the top right.
Choose problems. Now you can select and combine the questions you want in your assignment. You can choose questions based on Bok (book), Kapitel (chapter) and Delkapitel (subchapter). Select by clicking the nivå (level) or the question you want to include. You can pick from any year or any level. The level and year will not be shown to your students.
Choose students. You now select which class you want to share the assignment with. You can either share it with classes, groups and/or individual students. You know the students, you decide.
Other settings
Tillåt facit (Allow answer checking). Turn this on if you want to give the students the opportunity to look at the answer if they have answered incorrectly.
Provläge (Quiz mode). If quiz mode is turned on, the students cannot view the answer and they will not get feedback until the exam is over. Quiz mode is useful is you want to do an assessment with your class.
