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.
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.
Choose Submission Type
To begin the assignment, select a submission type from the Choose a submission type section [1].
If allowed by your instructor, you can choose to add a text entry submission [2], a website URL submission [3], a media file submission [4], an annotation submission [5], or a file upload submission [6].
If external tools are installed in your course, such as Google Drive or Microsoft Office 365, you can add a Google Drive file or URL submission or a Microsoft Office 365 file or URL submission [7].
Lastly, if allowed by your instructor, you may also take a photo of your assignment submission using your webcam.
Notes:
- If your assignment does not list one or more of the available submission types, those submission types have been restricted by your instructor.
- Group assignments do not support Student Annotation assignments.

When your submission is successfully submitted, the Progress Tracker displays a Submitted status [1] and your most recent submission displays [2].
If your instructor allows multiple attempts, you may resubmit another version of your assignment using the New Attempt button [3].

Notes:
- If you're not able to resubmit work, your instructor may have limited the number of allowed submissions or the assignment may no longer be accepting submissions due to the assignment's availability dates.
- Once you've submitted your work, the assignment will still display in the Assignments page and the Syllabus.
