Display a draft history and your review comments
After you comment on, grade, and submit a student's submission, you can re-open the assignment to review your comments and grade. You can also display the draft history for a composition or collaboration assignment as you review it. A draft history displays:
- The student's writing.
- Comments you made on a student's assignment. This includes all comments you added, from edits in the composing space to audio comments and attached files.
- Comments Pearson Tutor Services made on a student's composition or collaboration submission.
- The report generated by SourceCheck if the student submitted the composition or collaboration assignment for an originality check.
- A composition or collaboration assignment's previous drafts (if applicable) and comments on those drafts, including any drafts you returned to the student for a rewrite.
You can display a draft history from the composing space and the Grade Assignments page. Which page you use depends on the state of the student's submission.
- When you are reviewing a student's composition or collaboration submission, you can open the draft history in the composing space.
- After you have graded a composition or collaboration submission, you can use the Grade Assignments page to re-open the assignment and display its draft history.
