Can I ask students to send a compiled version of an assigment to my email?

[Occam-Consult]

Hi,

I have made an assigment which consists of a microsoft word file that has many tables that have to be compiled.

My idea is: 

1) students download this file

2) students write on this file

3) students send to my email a compiled version of this file.

Is it possible?

I really hope it doesn't violate any rule.

I'm asking this because the reply function of assigments only allows students to write a text. Which is not enough, for my assigment...

thanks in advance

Yes you can. I offer an additional certification and I require the student to complete thirteen assignments that involve working with his or team to solve problems, etc. They have to send me a portfolio of the thirteen assignments for me to review and if acceptable I then award them a Green Belt certification. 

I suggest being cautious in that you don't want to create too much work for yourself.

If I may ask, how the students sendyou the assigments/portfolio? A file via email?.

Yes, I have them send me their portfolio of assignments by email. That way I can mail them back their certificate.
