How do I view the feedback left for an assignments submission?

D2L allows instructors to leave feedback in multiple ways for assignments submissions: text feedback, feedback on a rubric, in line feedback written directly on the submitted document in D2L, attaching a new file with feedback written directly on a copy of the submitted document and GradeMark markup written directly on the submitted document through a integration with Turnitin. Your instructor may choose to use any or a combination of these types of feedback.

These instructions assume you have already logged in to D2L and entered the course in which you wish to work.

  1. Click on Assessment in the navigation bar.
  2. Select Assignments from the menu that opens.
  3. On the Assignments page, locate, but do not click, the name of the folder for which you wish to read your submission feedback.
  4. In the Evaluation Status column for that folder's row, click the blue Unread (or Read) link.
  5. Your instructor may have left feedback in several ways:
    • Overall Feedback: If your instructor left any text feedback, it will appear near the top of the page under the Submission Feedback heading.
    • Annotations on an uploaded copy of your submission: If your instructor annotated your submission using a program outside D2L, it will be listed as a downloadable file under the Attached Files heading.
    • Rubric: If your instructor used a rubric to evaluate your submission, it will be visible below Rubric Name heading. You may also choose to "Print Rubric" using the icon at the top right of the rubric.
    • In Line Feedback: If your instructor left any feedback using D2L's annotation feature, you can view it by clicking the blue View Inline Feedback link at the bottom of the evaluation status page in the Inline Feedback column of your recorded submission ID's.
    • Turnitin Feedback Studio Markup: If your instructor left any Feedback Studio markup, you can view it by clicking the colored block next to the percentage score in the "Turnitin Similarity" column next to the name of your submitted file.
