  • after the instructor posts the individual student's grade for the assessment

  • after the assessment due date

  • after the instructor posts all the grades for the assessment

  • on a specific date

  • view submission one time

To turn on the ability to view submissions on or off, select Allow students to view their submission. When you’re done choosing settings, select Save.

Example 2. Examples
  • You are delivering a high-stakes exam. Students should not be able to return to the exam questions after they submit their answers.

  • Students take an exam asynchronously. You want students to review the questions, answers, and automated feedback after all grades are posted.



Note

The default setting is that students can view the assessment results after submitting. Deselecting this option hides the student submission view. Other feedback options included in the side panel remain visible. This includes the overall assessment feedback, final grade, and originality report (if applicable).
