NOTE: If Closing date/time is left unset, students will not be able to access the Right Answers (per preset Assignment Templates). The Closing date/time is what triggers the "Later" settings.

For consistency and to make things easier on you, we highly recommend using the preset assignment templates, or creating Custom Templates in lieu of Customized Settings.

If using customized settings, or creating your own template, you have control over the type of feedback students receive and when. These settings are found on the Review Options tab of the Settings screen when creating your assignment. Each column refers to a different point in time and the items selected will be available to the student.


Review Options

First, the column headers:
  • "During" refers to when students are working on the assignment .
  • "Immediately" refers to the review immediately upon submission until the student leaves the page.
