Allowing students to re-submit an assignment is useful when they accidentally submit an assignment before completing it or when you want to provide them with another opportunity to demonstrate mastery.

To learn how to reset the submission status of an assignment for a particular student in your class, follow the steps below:

Note: This method is only possible if the student has not answered all of the questions and if the assignment time limit has not expired.

  1. Click on the Classes tab.

  2. Select Assignments and click on the specific assignment.

  3. Find the student's name, toggle over to Submission Status, select Submitted, and then select Reset status. 

  4. The student will be able to complete the remaining questions and resubmit the assignment.

If the timer has elapsed or your student answered all questions, you can instead reassign the assignment to them. Learn how to reassign here.
