How do my students see their assignment scores and writing feedback?

Students can view their assignment grades and teacher feedback once you release their scores. You can quickly release scores from the Assignments page. Once on the Assignments page, you will want to select the Ready for Release tab. You can then click Release Scores in the Actions column for any lessons that appear there.

You can also release scores from the Assignment Dashboard. To get to the Assignment Dashboard, go to your Assignments page and click the name of the lesson you would like to release scores for. Once on the Assignment Dashboard, you can click the gold Release Scores button. 

You can also release scores from the Assignment Report. You can get there by going to your Assignments page, clicking the name of the assignment, and then clicking the Assignment Report tab. You can then click Release Scores in the top part of the page.

When you have clicked Release Scores a window will appear and give you two options for releasing scores:

• Release scores and feedback only
• Release scores, feedback, and correct answers

Note: You may want to select the show students their scores, feedback, and correct answers option only once you have graded all or the majority of the submissions for an assignment. This will help prevent any answer-sharing among students who have received their scores and those who have not yet submitted.

Students will then receive a notification the next time they sign in telling them that an assignment has been graded. Depending on the option you selected when releasing scores, students will be able to click through the different questions and see how they did, as well as view any feedback you may have left them.

You will only have to release scores once for a particular assignment. If there are still students who have yet to submit when you release scores, they will automatically receive their scores once you have graded their submissions.
