on Apr 19, 2017Students always have the option to resubmit their Canvas assignments. As an instructor, you can decide how to handle assignment resubmissions.
You do have the option to set availability dates for each assignment. Availability dates can restrict the dates that an assignment can be submitted.
All assignment submissions can be viewed in SpeedGrader. Students will not be able to view their previous submissions after resubmitting unless you reupload the assignments to Canvas.
Note: The option to resubmit an assignment may not be available for external tool assignments.
