alice-teacher Fwd: grading work

[Heidi Kunselman]

Just my $ .02.Most schools are on severs these days. I just created a drop
box for my students to access and they upload their files onto the server.
Then I dump them to my laptop so I can grade them outside of school. I have
them save the files with their last name first, in the file name, so they
are in alphabetical order. The documentation is done in google docs for easy
access. Your school tech support should be able to help you with this.

Don,
   I agree with your suggestion to try this, which could be the problem. The
other problem Schoology presents is that (I believe) it sets by default a
smallish limit on the maximum file size allowed for student uploads. The
work-arounds I have used have been to either have smaller worlds for
students to upload (no sound files, simpler models), or asking for the limit
to be raised.
Just my $0.02,
Steve
