Step 10.

  • Remember to "Save"/ "Publish" the Canvas assignment. 
    • DO NOT set an Available Until Date since it will lock students from accessing the document and annotations after that set date. They will not be able to review or reference the assignment content and comments.
       

Step 11.

  • Tips when setting up the Canvas part of the assignment: 
    • Do not set due dates for the assignment. Many of the activities you have will have multiple due dates associated with them and Feedback Fruits will send notifications to students of each upcoming due date. 
    • Do not set available until dates for the assignment since that closes off students' ability to return to review submissions and feedback after that date. 
    • Do not select Group Assignment. Feedback Fruits handles the group arrangements.
