This page documents the steps required for submitting your Python programs for automatic evaluation on the Smith College Moodle site.

Steps

Login to Moodle

• Point your browser to Moodle, login with your Smith Id, and pick the link for this course (CSC111).

Submit your Program

• Find the link for today's assignment or lab.
• Click on it!
• You should see something similar to this screen capture:

• Click on the Submission tab.
• Using Windows Explorer, or Finder, depending on your computer, locate your lab1.py file and drag it to the drag and drop area. Or, click on Choose a file and pick lab1.py.
• Click on Submit, and then on Continue
• Click on the Edit tab, and you should see your program in an edit window.
• Click on Run. You should see something similar to the window below.

Evaluate the Program

• This is a very important step of the submission process. The Run command allows you to verify that your program can run on Moodle. But this does not generate a grade for you. To get your program graded, you need to evaluate it.
• If the console window is still up, close it.
• Click on the Evaluate tab.

• Note the grade assigned to the program, and the comments section, that will give you some idea of what may not be correct with the output.

You're Done!

• That's it for the submission.
• This semester you will have to submit your lab and homework programs to Moodle following this series of steps.
• When your output is not quite correct and you want to modify your submitted program, you could do some editing to your code on Moodle, but I strongly recommend that you edit your program in Idle, and then submit your file to Moodle again. This way you will always have a working version of your program on your computer.
