How do students know their assignments were successfully submitted?
When students submit assignments successfully, the Review Submission History page appears with information about their submitted assignments and a success message
with a confirmation number. Students can copy and save this number as proof of their
submissions and evidence for academic disputes. For assignments with multiple attempts,
students receive a different number for each submission. If your institution has enabled
email notifications for submission receipts, students will also receive an email with
a confirmation number and other details for each submission.
Administrators and instructors now have a retrievable record in the system even if
an attempt, assignment, or student is later deleted from the course. These records
are maintained in the course and also retrievable after the archive and restore process.
How do I grade assignments?
When you create an assignment, a Grade Center column is created automatically. From
the Grade Center or Needs Grading page, you can see who has submitted their work and start grading. Students access
their grades from their My Grades pages or the assignment's Review Submission History page.
You can grade assignments inline, with delegated grading or anonymous grading, or
through SafeAssign.

How do I use SafeAssign?
SafeAssign is a plagiarism detection service you can enable when you create an assignment.
- In the Grade Center, locate the assignment with SafeAssign enabled. When students
have made their submissions, you see the Needs Grading icon. Open the cell's menu and select the attempt.
- On the Grade Assignment page, a SafeAssign section appears in the grading sidebar. While the report processes,
this statement appears: Report in progress...
- When the report is ready to view, a percentage appears in the grading sidebar. Expand
the SafeAssign link and select View Originality Report to view the results in a new window.
