Description

Add instructions to your web form or break it up into sections.

Auto-number questions will number the form fields for you. You will see the numbers when you click Save.

Hide download option prevents the students from being able to download their Student journal/note entry as a PDF or Word document.

Customise output/template allows you to add special formatting to your web form. Use the Rich text editor to create your form by inserting special syntax that relate to your form fields.

Allow only one note/journal entry – If checked, when students revisit the page they will see their last saved entry. If unchecked, students will be able to create multiple notes which are saved to a list. From the list they can review and edit their previous entries.

Submission deadline can be used if the submissions will be assessed. It prevents students from (re)submitting their journal/note after the assignment deadline has passed.

Enable feedback on student writing allows the teacher (course administrator) to post a comment to the student's journal/note submission. The student can then reply to the teacher's comment if they choose. The comments appear beneath the Student journal/note element and are also sent by email. Comments are private between the teacher and student so this option is not for the purpose of peer review.

Enable peer review allows other students in the class to view each other's submissions and post comments. You will need to add the UPI/NetIDs of the students to the Page contributors / student authors / reviewers field under Course Preferences > Advanced Options. You can set a start date and/or end date if you wish.

The advice/answer you want to display...  could either be "Thank you for your submission", or a model answer, or a link to a page for more information.
