What is the Web Content tool?
Updated onArticleThe Web Content tool allows instructors to create a link to a web site in the Tool Menu of the site. By default, the link opens a re-direct page that allows the web site to be opened in a new window. If the the link to a web site is within the Sakai instance domain (e.g. university.edu), instructors may be able to configure the tool to launch the website within the tool rather than as a separate window.
Instructors can also use the Web Content tool to create a tool link to a folder or a file in Resources. Any changes to the resources folder or file will be reflected when the Web Content tool ink is clicked.

How do I give students a choice of questions to answer in an assessment?
Updated onArticleIn Tests & Quizzes, you can create an assessment with several manually-graded questions (short answer/essay, file upload, or student audio response questions), where students answer some of them for full credit.
To accomplish this, you will need to distribute the total points desired among the essay questions you include in the assessment. Then, hide the questions' point values from students while they are taking the assessment so they will not be confused about where the points will be going. When grading, you can enter the points for the questions each student answered.

How can an instructor retrieve assessments that were saved but not submitted?
Updated onArticleWhen a student clicks the Submit for Grading button on the last page of an assessment or the Table of Contents, they are taken to an Assessment Submission Warning screen to confirm their submission. If they do not click the final Submit for Grading button to confirm, and the assessment is NOT timed, their responses may be saved, but the assessment will remain In Progress.
Instructors do not have access to the content of In Progress assessments. On the Total Scores screen, students with incomplete submissions would be listed as having No Submission recorded.
However, if a student has not yet submitted a copy of an untimed assessment, an instructor can retrieve their submission using the Automatic Submission (Autosubmit) feature in Tests & Quizzes.
Note: The autosubmit option is only available if it has been enabled on your system.
