FAQs
Deleting a student submission is not recommended. However, if there is a good reason please raise a support ticket.
In Blackboard assignments or Tests, it is not possible to remove anonymity without posting marks. However, if you don’t wish your students to see the marks, you can hide the submission point before posting marks. In Turnitin anonymity can be removed for individual students using “Reveal” feature, without post marks.
