This Week's Faculty Question
Q: Some of my students have submitted exam viewing requests via the Engineering Portal. How can I give my students from last term access to view their final exam responses?
A: Our guide on How do I facilitate final exam viewing in Quercus? explains how you provide students access to final exams (including comments and feedback) that were written using Quercus Quizzes or Assignments. If you require assistance, feel free to contact us at fase.edtech@utoronto.ca.
