Students must click the My Document tab to generate their copies of your Google Drive file.
Student experience
Students have access to two tabs displayed at the top of their assignment: Assignment and My Document. Clicking the My Document tab will generate a copy of the original file that will then be shared between you (the instructor) and the student. This copied file will then be placed and organized in your drive.
In the Assignment tab, students can:
-
See the due date and time.
-
See the assignment Description.
-
Review a rubric if one is being used to grade the assignment.
Students click the My Document tab in their view of the assignment to create their own copy of your original file. As the instructor, you are the owner of the document in Google, and the file is shared with your students.
When accessing Schoology via a web browser, students must be logged into their own Google Drive accounts through their browser in order to create a copy of your original file.
Submitting assignments
Once students authorize the app and log into their Google Drive account through their browser, they can edit their file from within Schoology.
Click Submit Assignment at the top of the document to submit.
Students may no longer edit the Google file after submitting the assignment. Instead, any edits a student makes after submitting the assignment are added as "suggestions" to the Google file. Teachers can review the suggestions to approve or deny the edits that were suggested after submitting the assignment.
However, students may click Unsubmit at any time before the due date, and before you have graded their work. This includes applying an exception code.
Unsubmitting an assignment returns it to In Progress in your view of the assignment as the Instructor. When an assignment is unsubmitted, the student re-gains edit access to the file and may continue working on the assignment.
