Completing a Benchmark Assignment Deep Dive

With the benchmark assessment option in Deep Dives, you now have the opportunity to demonstrate your initial writing skills before leveraging Packback’s Real Time Feedback. This will give you the ability to better understand your growth as a writer throughout your course.

A Benchmark Assignment will be indicated on your Writing Assignments feed with both a Deep Dive and Benchmark tag.

How to Complete a Benchmark Assignment Deep Dive

Your instructor will choose to create a Deep Dive as a Benchmark Assignment, which will hide Packback’s feedback, chat, and sources tabs from the sidebar in the Deep Dive drafting view.

    • PLEASE NOTE: You will still be able to add sources from the Works Cited tab, but they will not show any information regarding credibility when the benchmark assessment option is enabled.

When writing, a message will appear over on the right explaining what a Benchmark Assignment is and why you are completing one. Once you've completed writing your essay, make sure to click Submit.
