Upload a student response to a document upload question

Upload a student response to a document upload question

Document upload questions can be authored to generate a unique document code.

A student will send you their response (Example — by email) to a document upload question in the form of a document that references the document code.

You'll then save the student's document locally on your computer so that you can upload each individual document to Möbius.

You can then navigate to the Gradebook to manually grade their document submission that you've uploaded on the student's behalf.
