Choosing Ease

What is EASE?

EASE is an acronym for Electronic Assignment Submission Environment. It is a stand-alone system that is linked from within the USQStudyDesk. There are multiple benefits in using Ease: 

• Course leaders are able to add an EASE block onto their course home page with all links needed by both students and course managers
• All assignment data is taken directly from SCHED (SCHEDule of courses)
• Marks can be transferred to PeopleSoft
• It has a 'Marker Management Module' which allows markers to log in, mark electronically, and upload marks and feedback directly into the system
  

When to use EASE

This system is recommended for all courses, but especially courses that have large enrolments with multiple markers. It saves on assignment turn around time, and markers can still print assignments to mark if they wish
