Faculty and Student Assignment Detail Views for Learning Tool Assignments

Views for both faculty and students were created for Learning Tool Assignments. These views work similarly to the Basic Assignment view except that tools are attached. When adding or editing a Learning Tool Assignment, other differences are:

  • If the Launch the toolIn a new window option is selected in the Step Two: Learning Tool Assignment Options (Optional) section, then the tool will display in a new window for the student. 

    Step Two - Learning Tool Assignment Options (Optional) section
  • If the Launch the toolAutomatically launch the tool option is selected in the Step Two section, then the tool will automatically launch for the student view. (If the tool is displaying in a window, then the student will still be shown the Launch the tool button; otherwise, that button will be hidden for the student.)

  • If the Do not allow launch after selected date/time option is selected, and the specified date and time have passed, then the tool will NOT be displayed on this screen (neither the pop-up window nor the link to display it). In this case, a message displays stating: "This tool can no longer be viewed as of [date and time] due to assignment settings."

  • If the assignment is not yet open to students, then it is not visible to students. (This assumes that the option on the Add/Edit Assignment screen that allows "not yet open" assignments to be visible to students has not been selected.) A statement explaining that the assignment isn't visible to students is displayed near the top of the assignment screen as shown below.

    "This assignment is not open for any students...." statement.
