Why make Assignments with Why make Assignments with Diagnostics and Feedback?Diagnostics and Feedback?
"Individuals acquire a skill much more rapidly if they receive feedback about the correctness of what they have done. If incorrect, they need to know the nature of their mistake ... the feedback they [currently] receive is often neither timely nor informative."

Automatic Grading Motivate students to learn the correct approach
by: Penalizing them for incorrect responses Limiting the number of attempts per question Encouraging students to seek help from the
