A Template Application for Managing Online Assignments

Resumen

I developed a Microsoft Windows internet-based computer application (GroupMaker) for managing online-submitted assignments that is optimized to make grading student assignments easier. The application controls student submissions with templates, is internet-based, and presents information in panels that forestall errors. Assignments can be targeted to individual, group, and section. Assignment time settings include begin, due, end, and graded. Allowed privacy settings include none, group, full, and their combinations. Students submit assignments by typing and cut-and-paste, which allows character-input limits to be enforced. A demonstration version of GroupMaker can be downloaded from https://wp.towson.edu/precha/.
