Assignment Dropbox: How do I return a submission to a student to revise their work?

ANSWER: ASSIGNMENT DROPBOX - RETURN FOR FURTHER EDITING

After Students submit their assignments, you can evaluate them from the Assignment Dropbox tool. You have the following options:

  • return the submission to the Student or group and ask them to do further work.
  • save the submission and review it later.
  • grade the submission and return it to the Student or group.
  • if the submission does not require a grade, mark it as complete.

Role(s) Needed: These instructions apply to Section-level Instructors.

To return the submission for re-work:

Step 1: From the Teach tab, click the  Assignments tool in the Course Tools area of the Course Menu.

Step 2: Click the down arrow  icon next to the assignment name and select  View Submissions

  • On the Assignment Dropbox page, you will see 5 tabs, and the system defaults to the All tab, on which ALL assignments are shown in one view.

Step 3: Click the Submitted tab.

  • TIP: To filter the list to a specific assignment, in the upper-right corner of the Dropbox page, choose the assignment from the View by drop-down list and click the green Go arrow.

Step 4: Locate the submission and click on its link.

Step 5: In the submission:

  • In the Grader/Reviewer Comments text box, enter your comments.
