When working in your book, make sure you submit each chapter once it is finished. Your chapter has not been submitted for grading until you click Continue on the last page of the chapter and then select OK indicating that the chapter is complete and you wish to submit your work.

The Chapters column contains the live links to each chapter where you follow page by page and complete any activities, quizzes, and journal entries.  Be sure to click Continue at the bottom of every page! 

The Chapter Results column is where you can view your submitted quizzes and journals, along with feedback once your instructor has graded each chapter.

To view your assessment results, return to your portfolio and click View Results under the assessment you wish to review.
