Assessment support
We have been working with Student Advice and Well-being to consider how to help students submitting assessments. Some students find it difficult to understand an assignment brief, they can struggle with uploading the document and find feedback confusing.
To help elevate some of this stress and confusion we have added some text and a few links to all the assignments created in Canvas. Canvas has a consistent method for creating assignments and they always appear in the same place. When students open any canvas assignment the following text will appear.
Need Help? Just ask
Here is our help guide to submitting online. If you’re having issues that are affecting your studies and/or your wellbeing, please contact the Student Engagement Team for confidential advice and support. We also offer workshops on a wide variety of topics including Managing Anxiety.
Academic Misconduct
By submitting any work for marking at LJMU, you are confirming that you are aware of the LJMU policy regarding cheating and all forms of academic misconduct. The submitted work is your own/the group’s work and all the sources consulted have been appropriately acknowledged. You are aware that, in a case of doubt, an investigation may be held.It is your responsibility to check that you have submitted the correct files. Marks may be unmoderated – Marks are finalised at the Board of Examiners.
This text will not appear for a staff user as it is added automatically when the student opens the assignment. This way we can control what it says in the future, and it doesn’t get in the way of what you want to say.
If you are a staff member and want to see this text using the student view button on the home page of your course and navigate to the assignments area.
