The Assignments tool allows instructors to create, distribute, collect, and grade online assignments. Assignments are private; student submissions are not visible to other users of the site. The Assignments tool offers multiple grading options, including letter grades, points, check marks, pass/fail, or ungraded. Instructors can allow re-submission of assignments. This allows students to submit a draft, get instructor feedback, make corrections and resubmit a final version. When the instructor releases grades for an assignment, students can view instructor feedback and their grade.
