Adding drafting to an assessment
With Cadmus, you can allow students to submit a draft before completing their final submissions.
As students work in Cadmus, they can submit a snapshot of their work in progress as a draft. You can then provide feedback on draft submissions through Cadmus Marker or Turnitin Feedback Studio or Canvas SpeedGrader, which students can access in the Student Environment as they continue working towards their final.
NOTE: Drafting feature is only available for Cadmus Classic and Group Assessments.
