We are excited to introduce new updates to the Assignment Submission feature, making it more flexible for both teachers and students. These updates are designed to improve the overall learning experience by allowing a greater variety of assignment types and submission methods.

What is it & Why You Need It

We have brought some exciting updates to the assignment submission systems to give both teachers and students more options in their course assignments.

Voice Recording Submission: Students can now submit voice recordings for assignments, enabling them to present their speaking skills in language courses and verbally answer questions.

File Type Specification: Teachers now can specify which file types are allowed for assignment submissions. Whether it's images, videos, PDFs, or other formats, this feature ensures that students submit exactly what the teacher needs for proper evaluation. They can also choose whether to allow students to submit multiple files for one assignment.

How it Works

Voice Recording Submission

Students can record and submit audio for their assignments when voice submissions are required. After recording, they can review, re-record, and submit the audio just like any other file.

File Type Restrictions

Teachers can now specify the file type required for each assignment while setting up the task. Whether it’s an image (JPEG, PNG), a video (MP4, MOV), or a document (PDF, DOC), students will only be able to submit files in the format assigned by the teacher. Also, teachers can enable and disable multiple file submissions under an assignment according to the specific need of the assignment.
