Types of Assignments

• Standard - Without any additional settings, this activity type allows you to record or upload a standalone video and submit it for feedback. With additional settings, this assignment type can be configured to allow live review, group recordings, single attempt, or presenter slides. 
• Stimulus - This activity type allows you to record a video response to a prompt video (or other media). This recorded response will then be synchronized to the stimulus media. See our guide on Recording a Stimulus Video.
• Comment Only - This activity type allows you to evaluate a video without recording your response. See our guide on Submitting to a Comment-Only Activity.

Activity Details

• Points: If the activity is graded / scored you will see the total points available.
• Time limit: If a time limit is specified, recordings are restricted to that duration.  At the end of the time limit, the recording will be automatically submitted. (If you do not see a time limit, the creator of the activity did not set one.)
