Onshape Classroom Organization

Good Morning,

I am trying to set up the classroom to use in my upcoming class as last term we started using CAD but instead of using the classroom feature we just had each student create a folder and share it with the instructor. I have been able to set up assignments and that is coming along nicely but as I add more and more to the classroom I started realizing there is not really a solid way to organize them. Is there maybe a folder that I can create in there to group things by classroom or even day?

Also I was wondering if there was a way to add a specific open and close date and or time, or do I have to go in and manually turn assignments off and on to achieve that. I don't want the students to work ahead and when I did this with autocad in my LMS I would have the assignments turn on the day I wanted them to and then have them close when they were due so nothing could be added after that time. Thank you.

-Joe

    Hi Joe,

    Glad you're getting use out of the Classes & Assignments feature in Onsahpe. In answer to your first question, there is no way to organize assignments within a class into folders. But that's a great idea.

    As for open/close, you currently need to manually set assignments to "In progress" or "Closed." But automatically setting assignments to open and close is a feature our dev team is working on as we speak! I can't give an estimated timeframe, but stay tuned.

    Cheers,
    Matt
