CLAMP Chat: Assignments

CLAMP’s first CLAMP Chat will take place on Friday, November 20, from 2:00-3:00 PM Eastern Time. Carly Born of Carleton College will talk about the differences between Moodle Assignment, the Google Assignment LTI integration, and using Moodle Quiz Essay questions. She will cover pros and cons of each tool, pain points, and a wishlist of features that could make the whole situation easier.

The chat will take place over Zoom. Please register for the chat using this link: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYuduqupzsoGtB2SNnfU27x25HR5amMbD2H.
