Submitting assignments online

Most courses include the online submission of assignments, which is a simple and quick process. You will use the OU's electronic tutor marked assignment (eTMA) system, which holds a copy and record of all your assignments.

You can try out the system before the first assignment is due, by sending in a ‘dummy’ file.  This gives you the chance to try out the system, and to see how your assignment will look once your tutor has marked it and added feedback to it.

You'll find information on how to use the eTMA system in your StudentHome Help area, and can get help from the OU Computing Helpdesk if you have any queries.
