As an instructor, you have access to three tabs displayed at the top of the assignment. Each tab has additional controls and information.

• Assignment Tab

On the Assignment tab, you can:

• See the due date and time.

• See the assignment Description.

• Open the Google file you selected in a new tab in your browser. Note: This is the file that your students will use to create their own copies of the file, and any edits you make do not automatically update in previously-created copies of the file. That is, only students who create their copy after you make the edits will have versions that contain the edits. Updates to the file are not reflected for students who've already made their copies.

• Review a rubric if one is being used to grade the assignment.

In Progress displays a list of both students who have clicked My Document and created their own copy of your Google file, as well as students who have not yet made their copy of the distributed file.

When you select a student’s name who has not yet clicked the My Document tab in their view of the assignment, the following message displays:

It looks like [student’s first name] has not opened this assignment yet. Once your student clicks on “My Document,” a copy of your original file will be created and the document will appear here.

Students can edit their files while submissions are still In Progress. Once students make a submission, they can no longer edit their files (from either Schoology or Google Drive). As the instructor and owner of the file, you will always have edit access to each of your students' files.

This copy displays when you select a student from the list in your In Progress tab until the student makes a submission. Once the student submits, his or her name and document display in the Submissions tab instead.

• Submissions Tab

Submissions displays a list of students who have submitted the assignment. Select a student’s name to view his or her document.

From Submissions you may:

• Click into the grade input field along the top of the document header to grade the submission, enter a score, or add a comment.

• Click the Exceptions icon to apply an exception.

• If you're using a rubric to grade the assignment, click the rubric icon to open the rubric and add scores and comments for the assignment.

• Click Unsubmit below the student name to move the assignment back into the In Progress tab and enable the student to continue working on the assignment.

• Provide feedback using native Google features, including commenting and annotation tools, as well as advanced editing tools like insert math formula and insert charts.
