This article explains that the teacher can choose to allow multiple submission attempts and how (if you are given multiple submission attempts) you can resubmit an assignment.
The content of this article consists of:
- One submission attempt
- Only the most recent submission attempt is saved (multiple submission attempts)
- All submission attempts are saved (multiple submission attempts)
A teacher can adjust the settings of an assignment. The teacher can choose whether you are permitted to submit your assignment once, or multiple times. Communicate with your teacher about the amount of attempts available.
If you are given multiple submission attempts, either the most recent attempt is saved, or all submissions are saved. Ask your teacher which is relevant for the assignment.
