How do I submit an assignment on behalf of a group using Assignment Enhancements?
A group assignment allow students to work together on an assignment and submit it as a group using Assignment Enhancements. Only one group member needs to submit the assignment on behalf of the group.
Files uploaded using the Rich Content Editor count toward your user storage quota. Any attachments added as part of a graded assignment submission are also copied to your group files but are not counted against your user quota. However, once the file has been uploaded as a submission, you cannot delete the file. If you upload a file from your computer, the file is stored in the group Submissions folder. However, please note that if you submit a file that was previously uploaded to your group files, the file is stored in your Submissions folder.
Notes:
- When a group assignment is submitted, any submission drafts belonging to other group members are deleted.
- Previously uploaded group files cannot be accessed in the assignment details page. To submit a previously uploaded group file as an assignment submission, you must move the group file to user files.
- Group assignments do not support Student Annotation assignments.
