Downloading HuskyCT Assignments in Bulk
This article is for faculty and staff who wish to download assignments submitted to an assignment for offline grading. This process, which starts in the Grade Center, zips together all the original submissions so they can be downloaded all at once and viewed offline. This method can also be used for archiving assignments.
Downloading All Submitted Assignments from the Grade Center
This option can be used to download all submissions at once for a particular assignment, regardless of whether the students submitted files created outside HuskyCT or they typed in the text box.
In Full Grade Center, click on the options arrow to the right of the title of the assignment column. Choose Assignment File Download.
Select all by checking the box to the left of “Name” at the top or check off individual names in the list.
Click Submit.
Click the “Download assignments now” link in the confirmation message. This will give a zip file that contains the original documents submitted plus .txt files that contain any student entered comments as well as the content for submissions typed directly into the text box.
Downloading Original Submitted Word, Excel, PPT, PDF Files for Individual Students
This option is available when the instructor is viewing an individual student’s attempt.
It is best to use the option that appears in the right-hand grading area of the screen. This will preserve the original file name.
Using the download file icon available next to the comment button in the left-hand area of the screen results in the download of a file with a generic file name based on document type.
Downloading Submissions of Other File Types (Not Word, PPT, Excel, or PDF)
Click on the Download button to obtain the file. The original file name will be retained.
Using this download file option will preserve the original filename.
The open and/or save options you get for the file being downloaded will depend on the operating system and browser you are using.
Downloading Submissions of Textbox Entries (No File Uploaded by Student)
There are no file download options within the Assignment Grading Area for responses typed into the textbox available to the students.
Download text box submissions from the Grade Center column using the option “Assignment File Download.” This creates a ZIP file with a .txt file for each student.
