Assignment Resubmission History
This is a proposal for an additional feature for the Assignment module to retain a history of the submission by a student to the assignment.
Goals and rationale
The main goals of this feature are to :
- Provide a better history of the student interactions with an assignment.
- Make it easier for students to upload files to an assignment (without having to delete their original files first)
- provide an audit trail for internal and external verification of marked work
Overview
This is a feature request from the community to retain the list of submissions by a student instead of overwriting the previous submission.
New settings
- "Submission history" Yes|No - If enabled, each student submission to the assignment will be recorded at submission time and a teacher will be able to see each submission by an individual student.
Interface changes
A new entry will be put in the drop down menu on the grading table for each submission to view the submission history for that student. This will go to a new page in the assignment that displays the student details, as well of a list of the submissions by that student. For each submission it will contain the time and date, any files, online text or custom submission data. (Question: Does it need grades/feedback?)
Use Cases
A teacher wants to give feedback and let a student upload a new file submission to the assignment
- Create an assignment with file submissions enabled, "Submission history" enabled and "Require students click submit" disabled
- Wait until a student uploads a file submision
- Grade the submission and give some feedback
- Revert the submission to draft to allow the student to upload a new file
- The student should see a readonly version of their original submission plus any feedback from the teacher
- They should now be able to upload a new file without having to delete their first submission
User Interface
Some screenshot mockups will help the community visualise this feature.
