Building A Better Builder
Exciting news! We have just improved and updated the Assignment, Quiz and Writing Prompt Builders.
Here is how each builder has been made better.
Assignment Builder Improvements
Now, when you build your content, you can Bold Text, change the color of your text, add
numbering and bullets, sub and super scripts, special characters, tables and more!
You can also click on the View Grade Report link to see which of your students has completed your assignment or choose to have an assignment notification e-mailed to you.
Finally, when adding material to your Assignment, you can now search your saved content instead of the entire unitedstreaming library.
Quiz Builder Enhancements
Just like the Assignment Builder, the Quiz Builder, gives you the ability to add Bold Text, change the color of your text, add numbering and bullets, sub and super scripts, special characters, tables and more!
Writing Prompt Improvements
I think the following enhancement is too cool for school. When your students log into the Student Center to access your writing prompts, they can now type in their work. Students also have the ability to bold text and do all of that fun stuff in their response.
PLUS, once your students click on on the submit button, you can access their written work either by e-mail or by logging into unitedstreaming.com and clicking on the view grade report links.
Finally, as with the other two builders, the Writing Prompt Builder now gives you the ability to add Bold Text, change the color of your text, add numbering and bullets, sub and super scripts, special characters, tables and more!
These changes were brought about because of you, and your comments. Thank you for helping us continue to make unitedstreaming better!
Talk to you soon,

Matt,
Thanks so much for your help at the Silver Spring institute. The new tools are great. We decided to learn how to use them in our required project. Our assignment is at: http://www.unitedstreaming.com/studentCenter/index.cfm?cdCode=T4A9B-699A
Thanks again.
