Sakai 21 - Tests & Quizzes: What information is in a Tests & Quizzes email notification?

 

What information is in a Tests & Quizzes email notification?

Below are screen shots with examples of the email notifications you'll receive if you've selected to receive email for submissions from Tests & Quizzes. There are several types of notifications corresponding to the different ways in which an assessment can be submitted:

  1. Manual submission: A student clicks the Submit for Grading button on the Assessment Submission Warning screen to confirm submitting an assessment.
  2. Timer submission: The timer expires on a timed assessment and automatically submits the assessment for the student.

Content of All Notifications

All Tests & Quizzes email notifications contain the following:

  • The title of the site where the assessment was taken
  • The title of the assessment
  • The student's name and ID
  • A submission ID for the assessment
  • The date the assessment was submitted
  • A confirmation number for the submission
    (This confirmation number also displays on the submission confirmation screen after a student submits an assessment.)
  • The assessment due date (if the instructor or site administrator selected one)
  • The site ID
    (This is the site ID where the test was taken.)

Manual Submission

A manual submission occurs when a student clicks the Submit for Grading button on the Assessment Submission Warning screen to confirm submitting an assessment.

The subject of the email for a manually submitted assessment will say: Notification for assessment submission: [the title of the site where the assessment was taken] - [the assessment title]

The first line of the email notification will include the text The following assessment submission was recorded.

Timer Submission

A timer submission occurs when a timer expires on a timed assessment and automatically submits the assessment for the student.

The subject of the email for a timed assessment submission will say: Notification for timed assessment submission: [the title of the site where the assessment was taken] - [the assessment title]

The first line of the email notification will include the text The timer has expired and the following timed assessment has been automatically submitted.
