Course Instructors: Have you tried the new Inline Assignment Grading feature?

06.14.13    With the recent OAK upgrade, course instructors can now grade student assignments "inline." What does that mean? Instead of downloading files, editing them in MS Word and uploading them back in OAK, or printing them out and grading them manually, you can now view and grade the assignments instead your browser. The available tools are similar to those you would find in MS Word.
    To use this tool, instructors create an Assignment as they did before. After students submit their work, the files are accessible from the Grade Center as before. The only change is that that document will now be viewable in the browser.
    For those who want grade of assignments traditionally, the files can be downloaded as usual.
