Engineers are currently investigating the issue.
Description
Currently, when a user uploads a file as part of an assignment submission, we count that as a file upload in Analytics and not a submission. This means the student does not get a participation counted for a submission with a file upload.
Expected Behavior
When a student uploads a file as part of an assignment submission, that should be counted as a participation in Analytics (new Analytics and Admin Analytics).
Workaround
No workaround exists at this time.
Steps to Reproduce
-
Create an assignment that allows/requires a file submission.
-
As a student, upload a file as your submission.
-
As a teacher, go to New Analytics and see that the student does not have a participation recorded for that assignment.
