Submitting written work

Keep in mind that:

  • For exam assignments, you must have a front page with the following information:
    • Course titel / Project titel
    • Course code (e.g. 1408003U, 1012001U etc.)
    • The names of all students submitting the assignment
    • ITU-email for all students submitting the assignment (e.g. abcd@itu.dk)
  • If you are writing a project (that has a project agreement in the project base), the title on your assignment must be the same as in your project agreement.
  • You submit under the relevant project or course.
  • Exam assignments for courses can be submitted two weeks before the submission deadline.
  • Projects can be submitted when the project agreement has been approved.
  • For the thesis and other projects you have to upload the assignment and the appendix separately.

Upon submitting your written work in learnIT, you will receive an auto-generated confirmation receipt by email.

Video upload

Video files are often quite large and can take a long time uploading to learnIT or even exceed the maximum file size permitted. Therefore we advice you to compress the file before submitting. 

There are various tools available to reduce video size. We recommend the free and open source tool, Handbrake which works on windows, linux and macOS.
To get started, please take a look at the quick start guide for Handbrake.

FAQ

After the project agreement has been approved, you can only change the project title. You can change the title until you have submitted the project.

You are however not assessed on the problem statement as described in the project agreement, so it is fine to put a revised problem statement in the finished project.

If you have substantial changes to the problem formulation, method or the like, you may want to describe them in an appendix or a summary about the project process in the finished project.

No, the system will close for download after the deadline. You can apply for an exemption to hand in after the deadline, but in needs to be on the basis of special circumstances.

If you want to apply, you should send the application as soon as possible and attach the assignment to the email. Remember to argue why you should be exempted.

If you do not submit within the deadline or if your application for exemption is rejected, a "not attended" (udeblevet) will be registered for the exam.

At first, you will upload a draft. You can edit the draft or submit it. Once you have submitted, you cannot edit your submission.

You can apply for an exemption from the rule, but this will often have to be on the basis of special circumstances. Read more about applying for an exemption.

When you submit an assignment as a group, you should upload the project just once. Any member of the group can upload the project, and he or she must add the other group members in the submission window in LearnIT.

First, check the IT operating status. If the problem is not described here, or if it seems to be local (i.e. related to your computer), you can contact the IT Department (it@itu.dk) for help.

No, you shouldn't submit anything. You will get a "u" for "udeblevet" (absent). It can mistakenly be registered as a submission for the exam, if you submit a blank sheet.

You can see in LearnIT which type of file to submit and how many files can be submitted.

If this has to be changed, please contact your Course Manager or Supervisor. Also, to make sure your files do not exceed the maximum permitted, you can compress them in a .zip file. Here is a walk-through how to do that.


When you submit in LearnIT, you can choose to make the submission "confidential" and only the examiners will be able to see it. In addition, the oral exam will be held behind closed doors, i.e. without an audience, on your request.

If you mark your submission "official" you can choose to share the submission with ITU students only or make it accessible to people without an ITU-login as well.

Please use the possibility of confidentiality with care, as important knowledge sharing will be lost if it is used too often.
