Document Delivery
This feature is designed to allow administrative staff to provide documents to learners. Unlike the 'handback response' feature for a dropbox assignment, with document delivery the learner does not have to submit a file in order to receive something back.
At present you must individually upload documents for learners.
This feature is controlled by a database setting (gradebook_assessment_document_delivery_enabled) and is disabled by default. To enable it for your organization, speak to a developer.
How to create a document delivery folder
Navigate to Admin > Manage Courses.
Search for the course you want to work with and from the cog icon on the right, select 'Gradebook'.
On the lower half of the screen, look for Document Delivery and click 'Add New Folder'.
Provide a folder name and set the access start and end date as needed.
Click 'Save'.
The newly created folder will display on the screen.
To edit a folder, click on the pencil icon to the right of the folder name.
Once a folder has been created you can upload documents for learners.
How to upload documents
Navigate to the graebook for a course.
Click on a folder name in the Document Delivery section.
You will see a list of all learners for the applicable cperiod.
Click the 'Add Document' button beside a learner's name to add a document.
You will be prompted to select a file from your computer.
After you have uploaded the document, the filename will display on the screen along with the date and time it was uploaded.
Note that you can upload more than one document per learner.
Supported documents include PDFs, .doc and.jpeg files.
To delete a document click the garbage icon beside the file name.
How learners view documents
Navigate to My Gradebook.
Click on a course title.
Learners will see a Document Folder section, and beneath that the names of any folders created for that course.
Within each collapsible folder, learners can view the documents available to them. (In the image above, the second two folders are collapsed.)
Click on a file name to access the file. The icon to the right of the file shows the file type.
Please note that if a folder has no document uploaded for a learner, the folder will not display to the learner.
