Once submitting an assignment and after waiting for your teacher or another peer to review it, you will want to see the feedback left on your submission.

There are two possible ways to see your feedback on assignments:

Option 1: access your feedback from the Grades or Assignments page of a course

Option 2: access your (summarized) feedback from the Home page of a course

Follow the visual step by step guide for the option you prefer!

Step by step visual guide (Option 1)

Go to the "Grades" page ("Omdömen" in Swedish), and find the assignment that you want to see the feedback on.

You can either click on the assignment to go to the page of the assignment, where you see the file submitted and the comments, or click on the chat bubbles to see the comments in the same page you are on.

If the teacher has left comments in the document, you'll need to click the assignment and not the chat bubbles. (Note that the chat bubbles are only visible if a comment has been left by the teacher)

When on the page of the assignment, you will see comments your teacher has left on it on the right hand side of the page. If the comments are directly in the document, you'll need to click the View feedback button, located to the right of your file submission.

Step by step visual guide (Option 2)

If you click on the Home page within a course, there is a header called "Recent Feedback" ("Senaste Feedback" in Swedish). There you will see a short version of any comments your assignment(s) may have received, as well as the score. By clicking on an item there, you will be taken to the page of that particular assignment.

Recent feedback can be seen from the Home link of a course. It is a short version of feedback given on assignments, but it is an easy way to access your most recent feedback
