Using my own Packet Tracer activities with automatic submitting and grading
I would like to add my own .pka-s into the course and use them as assignments. I can do that by uploading the file, creating an assigment, then student downloads the file and uploads the solved activity of an other student...
If Netspace could use my own .pkas with the same method as the official activities (calls PT from the webpage and uploads the file automatically when student chooses Submit) and also puts the percentages automatically into the gradebook, now that would be quite nice.
Norbert, community members have made this available in the ‘Community’ section of Cisco NetSpace titled ‘Activity Grader’ in the ‘ExApps-JavaScript Files’ section of Packet Tracer Communities. -NetAcad Support

I'm using packet tracer 7.2. I am have setup a packet tracer final hands-on exam for my students that can grade it's self using the activity wizard. I have downloaded the activity grader and imported the app into packet tracer. The problem is when I launch the activity grader it sends me to java.com to download java. I already have the latest java. What am I doing wrong? The activity grader 7.1.1 can be found here:

The ‘Activity Grader’ in the ‘ExApps-JavaScript Files’ provides for 'automatic grading' of offline .pka in a folder with the option of automatically uploading and updating the Gradebook.
However, what is missing and what some of us are busy working on (which is not looking so simple) is to have an Instructor load .pka files to a webpage (e.g. Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard) and to have a student upload their completed .pka files. On upload, the submitted .pka file must be automatically graded.
