EL/MS/INT: Istation Assignments - Activity Keeps Restarting 10/21/16

Scenario: Student clicks on the Assignment button in Istation to start a lesson that has been assigned by the teacher.  The student has to stop mid-way through the lesson.  When the student returns the next day, he/she is complaining that it starts the entire assignment over again from the beginning. 

Question: If the student logs out of the assignment before it is completed, does the student have to start over from the beginning?

Answer:  Assignments are like the ISIP test…they are generally divided into segments.
If the activity is divided into segments, once the student completes (for example) the first segment, he/she won’t repeat that one.  But if the student (for example) gets through 60% of the 2nd segment and has to leave, he/she will have to repeat that same 60% of the 2nd segment the next time log in occurs.
