The annotation tools will not appear if the submission is a text entry. These tools only appear for file uploads.
Hi @LisaGrant922 - students still have access to the annotation tools. They have to click the assignment, select the assigned paper on the right to open the review page. Next, the students have to click 'View Feedback' to access the annotation/markup tools. See the following link as well: Create annotated feedback.
We did all of those steps and those tools are not there.
