Seedling: Activity Sidebar

This is the first article in the Seedling series. Seedling articles offer a preview of new features that are in the works.

Today's Seedling is a new suite of features for students working on assignments: the Activity Sidebar. The Activity Sidebar will consist of a series of drawers, each containing helpful information for students working on that particular activity.

We currently have at least 6 drawers planned: Assignment Information, Scoring Information, Technical Support, Help Entering Your Answer, Help With This Topic, Subject Resources, and Web Help & Videos.

The Assignment Information drawer will contain important information about the assignment: the name of the assignment, when it's due, any description the instructor gives it, and the grading policies that will be used on the assignment. Except for the scoring policies, all of this information is already shown to students in the current assignment view, but it can be a little hard to find; we'll put the information front-and-center.

The Scoring Information drawer will give students information about where their score on the assignment is coming from. We'll show students their individual scores on each question, with an explanation of why they received that score.

The Technical Support drawer will give students quick links to support topics, as well as an easy place to email our support team with any questions they might have. We pride ourselves on quick support replies, so we want to make it easier for students to find us.

Help Entering Your Answer will offer information about the specific modules used in the question. For example, if the question involves molecule drawing, this drawer will have videos explaining how to use the molecule drawing module.

The Help With This Topic drawer will contain links to helpful reference materials, such as sections from ebooks or online video lectures. These resources are keyed to the specific topic of the question. You can see some examples of these resources in the Resources button currently available in organic chemistry courses.

For each subject (such as General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Introductory Chemistry, GOB, Biochemistry, Chemical Engineering: Mass & Energy Balances, or Physics), the Subject Resources drawer will have links to general references pertaining to those subjects. These aren't keyed to the topic of the particular question, but might be helpful if students aren't sure where to start.

Finally, the Web Help & Videos drawer will contain the results of a targeted web search for the topic of the question. The web is a rich source of helpful information, but here we help students sift through that information.

The Activity Sidebar is being designed to be extensible, so that we can add additional drawers as new types of resources become available. If you have any ideas for resources that students might find helpful, please let us know in the comments.

  57. Actually i have been suffering from driving as i never had my Italian licence for about 7 months now as i am not from this country, i met this guy online https://patentediguidavalida.com- on this site and he told me he could get me a valid Italian licence without exam in 5 days, i could not believe him, but deep down in me i really knew that i needed it, so i decided to give it a shot,he asked me to pay him the sum of 500 upfront and a balance of 1000 making it 1500 when i get the licence and confirm it is valid, i was so scared, so i had to talk with my wife about it, since she is Italian, she refused but i just believed i should take the risk. I took the risk and paid the 500 without my wife concern and stayed in panic for the 5 days that followed. On the 5th day morning which happened to be a Tuesday, i called this guy and asked of the progress of the licence of which he asked me to calm, fortunately i was not going to work that day. At 1 pm i had given up and was playing with my kids knowing that i had lost 500. At 15 mins pass 3 i was so surprised when i heard a knock at the door and it was the delivery agent. I immediately rushed and opened and smiled as he handed over the envelope to me. I oponed and found it was my licence, i could not believe so i checked online and it was on the system. I immediately called and pay the balace of 1000. I told my friends and 6 of them now have valid Italian Licence from https://patentediguidavalida.com you can be next, https://patentediguidavalida.com
