Steps

  1. Open Review or the class's Submissions area and select a submitted item.
  2. Confirm the student, class, assignment brief, linked formula, notes, and earlier feedback.
  3. Write specific Instructor feedback. Wait for the Feedback saved status if you are saving a draft before deciding.
  4. Choose Approve submission, Request revision, or Return submission, then confirm the decision when prompted.
  5. Reopen the submission and verify its new status and feedback.

Check it worked

Keep in mind

A formula check or AI suggestion is not an instructor approval.
