FAQ: Printing your assignment with feedback from LearnUCS

This FAQ is student has a student focus

Increasingly, staff are using LearnUCS to collect your assignments and provide inline feedback and comments as well as an unratified grade. You can access these assignments via the My Grades area within LearnUCS.

A common request is, how do I print out my annotated script as I'd like to read these offline?

The following two videos (no audio) illustrate how to do this using the software available on computers at UCS.

Step 1: Download your annotated file

It is important to select download with annotated comments



Step 2: Use Adobe Reader (installed on UCS computers)

• Open Adobe Reader
• Open the file you have downloaded (you'll see all the comments inline with your document. When you print, these become footnotes)
• Click on Print
• Select Summarise Comments
• Print

Would you like to better understand how you can use technology to enhance your learning while at UCS?

If the answer is yes to the question above, the following two steps would be a great start.

Step 1: Complete a self assessment for your personalised profile

A version of the University of Exeter iTest is available from the Newham University. This can be accessed from:

• http://bit.ly/ucsitest 

If you have any problems access the above, a printed version is available from:

• http://bit.ly/ucsitestpdf 

This self-assessment will reveal a personalised profile spanning six different genres. So how to do you score in terms of being a digital dodger, a career builder, a digital guru, media mogul, information junkie or online networker?

Step 2: Discuss your profile and further development at a Student Drop-in Session

The next step is to apply this profile to developing an small action plan for the effective use of technologies in your learning. To help achieve this step the Elevate Team provide a student drop-in service to discuss strategies to use technologies for learning at the UCS Ipswich Library on a Wednesday (2.30 to 3.30) and Thursday (2.00 to 3.00). It would be great to further discuss these ideas.
