Add Feedback and Evaluations to Assignments

(1) The Evaluate Submission page enables you to evaluate and leave feedback on students’ submissions. It contains two main sections: The Submissions List panel and the Evaluation panel. Use the Evaluation panel to grade and provide comments on submissions.
If you make evaluations directly on the Evaluate Submission page, you can (2) publish feedback immediately or save your feedback as a draft and release it at a later time. This enables you to revise and review evaluations, and publish your feedback to multiple users at the same time. You 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.

(3) If you use rubrics to assess submissions, the rubric opens in a pop-up window to enable easy grading, and the score transfers automatically to the Evaluation and Feedback sidebar. The overall score of the rubric transfers automatically to the Score field and appears in Grades if the assignment is associated with a grade item. The rubric feedback appears on the Feedback page to the learner.

If you have Anonymous Marking enabled, you must click Save Draft and save your feedback for each anonymous user, then click Publish All Feedback on the assignment page to submit feedback to the anonymous users. Instructors cannot publish feedback from the Evaluate Submission page, and must do so from the assignment page.

(4) If you download user submissions and leave feedback within the files, you can (5) upload them back to the appropriate assignment, so they appear as attachments to each user’s submission evaluation. To ensure successful feedback upload and distribution back to learners, do not rename the downloaded files’ names after you enter feedback and save changes.
