Item Description

Submission Header

Each submission for the question displays a header with the sequence number of the submission and the points earned. The first submission is displayed at the top and the most recent submission at the bottom.

Note For assignments with question part submission:
  • The date and time when the submission was made is displayed
  • The number of submissions made might look like more than the allowed number of submissions. This is because each time your student submitted new answers, submissions were used only for the changed question parts.

Answers

The answers submitted for each question part are displayed for each submission. If an answer box was empty when the question was submitted, it displays (No Response).

Marks

As an instructor, you are always shown marks for each answer box to indicate whether or not the answer was correct. Your students see marks only if they are displayed on the assignment.

Note Marks on the Previous Answers page do not indicate whether more credit was earned for a previous response.

Question Feedback

If available, question feedback is displayed for each submission.

Answer Keys

As an instructor, you are always shown the answer key. Your students see the answer key only for those submissions after which the answer key was displayed on the assignment.

New Randomization

If shown, the New Randomization banner indicates that the question values changed after your student clicked New Randomization in the assignment.
