Moodle Assignment

As a student, you may be asked to submit an assignment electronically to Moodle. There are two different assignment types on Moodle: Moodle assignment and Turnitin assignment. The process to upload an assignment is fairly similar for each. This guide explains how to upload an assignment and receive feedback from a Moodle assignment.

Moodle assignments will typically appear on Moodle with a blue file icon as shown:
