Moving Exams or Final Work Online
If you are not already using a digital approach for finals, DLINQ recommends using Canvas. Contact DLINQ if you want further assistance or guidance.
Canvas offers:

- An Assignments tool that allows students to upload and submit assignments like papers and projects.
- Speedgrader, which allows you to grade and comment on assignments and open-ended exam questions.
If you have not yet used Canvas to offer an exam or grade student work, here are a few resources to help:
