How to Upload a Graded Assignment Submitted through Email
Goal
After completing this how-to you will have knowledge needed to upload a graded assignment that was submitted by email rather than through the Assignment activity.

In most cases, the instructor can download the paper, grade the assignment and save it to their computer. To return the graded assignment with feedback, review the steps below. **Note: If the assignment uses a rubric for grading, the rubric will not be accessible to use for grading with this process.
