Evaluate Submissions and Add Feedback in the Assignments Tool
The Evaluate Submission page within the Assignments tool enables you to evaluate and leave feedback on individual and group assignment submissions.
If you make evaluations directly on the Evaluate Submission page, you can publish evaluation feedback immediately, or save your feedback as a draft and release it at a later time. This enables you to revise and review evaluation feedback prior to publishing it, and then publish feedback in bulk. You also have the option to retract published feedback if you want to provide an update to past evaluations but only want learners to access your most recent feedback. You can also annotate students’ web and plain text file submissions with the HTML Editor and attach those annotations as part of feedback.
On the nav bar, select the Activities menu, then click Assignments.
On the Assignments page, from the context menu of the folder you want to evaluate, click View Submissions.
On the Submissions page, click the Evaluate link for the submission or select the student’s name.
