Deadlines for submission of the assignment:

  • Home assignment: Let Johanna know when the assignment is due. Exam office will create a Flow for you about two weeks before the deadline. You can then upload your assignment directly to the Flow.

    • You can start creating the assignment in WISEflow before the Flow is created. Once the Flow is created, you can then add your assignment to the Flow.

    • Assignment period: 2 weeks, starting at 09:00 and ending at 14:00 on the due date.

      E.g, due date on 2026-10-14, then the assignment period is from 2026-09-30 09:00 to 2026-10-14 14:00.

Workflow overview:

  1. Flows are generated by the exam office.

    Eksamenskontoret oppretter en Flow. NĂĽr den er opprettet, legger Johanna meg til som forfatter, slik at jeg kan laste opp oppgaven direkte i Flowen.

    Flowen blir vanligvis opprettet cirka to uker før innleveringsfristen.

    When the flow is created, you will receive an email notification from WISEflow.

  2. The course responsible (me) adds Assignments to the flow.

    Click the corresponding flow to add your published Assignment.

Q: Do I need to create a FLow myself?
A: No. The exam office will create a Flow for you and add you as an author. You can then upload your assignment directly to the Flow. Besides, the Flow creation function is NOT available for course responsible’s WISEflow page.

WISEflow Document: Creating a Flow

Q: What are flow types?

A: Flow Types are different forms of assessments.

  • FLOWassign: Commonly used for home assignments. Participants view/download the set assignment from WISEflow and then work outside of the system to create their submission. Participants then upload their paper as a PDF (main paper must be in pdf format).

    If enabled, their submission can be supplemented with Appendix Material where NO specific file type is required. Assessors can then provide feedback and provide grades within the system. Participants can view their provided feedback/grades within WISEflow.

    I don't need to set up group submission. It is done by the exam office. I just need to add the assignment to the flow.

    • <Support working in groups ← Need to set this up manually; NOT enabled by default.

      Basic settings tab > Details > Set “Group type” to “Group submission”.

      • Students are able to form groups themselves within WISEflow.

      • Each group must make a group submission.

        Only one member of the group needs to make the submission. Once submitted, the submission is attributed to each participant in that group. Assessors will mark just the one submission; the scores and feedback will be attributed to each participant in the group.

    Navigation and Basic Settings of a Flow

    Students: Form a Group and Submit a Group Paper

    Advanced settings for FLOWassign

  • FLOWmulti: Final exams.

Group Type

  • No Group Type: Participants are not supposed to submit in groups. All participants will submit separately. This is set as a default on the licence.

  • Groups Submission: The participants on the flow need to form groups. Each group makes a joint submission. Each group member can submit and withdraw on behalf of the entire group, and only one paper can be submitted. Participants will receive feedback via the marking tool and there will be only one similarity report.

  • Individual Submissions: The participants on the flow need to form groups. Each participant submits individually.

  • Group with shared submission and individual grading: The participants on the flow need to form groups. Each group makes a joint submission. Annotations and feedback comments are common to the group but each participant receives an individual grade.
