You can view a student's in-progress work or re-open a returned Easel Activity from the Submissions section of the assignment.
With Easel it's easy for you to track student progress as they work through an assigned activity to ensure that all of your students are engaged and staying on track every step of the way. This means that you’ll no longer have to wonder which students are getting stuck on a particular question or need additional guidance and support.
If you’d like to check on your students’ progress on an assigned Easel Activity, you can do so by following the instructions below:
- Open the Easel Activity and click on the “Submissions” button.
Note: Each assignment is associated with a unique code, so if you’ve assigned the activity more than once, make sure you’re opening the correct one. - From there, you’ll see a list of student names and the status of their activity. If the activity has been submitted and you haven’t returned the activity, you will also see the date in which it was turned in by your student
- If the activity status shows “In Progress,” simply click the student's name to assess a snapshot of how that particular student is doing at that moment in time.
- For the most up to date view, click on the “Refresh” button (Note: You will not be able to see the student working on the activity in real-time, but clicking “Refresh” will show you the latest state of the student’s work.)
In addition to viewing in progress work, Easel also makes it possible to re-open any Easel Activity that you’ve graded and returned to your students. This feature is particularly helpful if you need to reference feedback that you provided, or simply want to keep track of student development over time.
Please know that while viewing an in progress or returned activity, you will not be able to post comments in the activity or provide feedback as the activity is locked.
