Submissions represent learners’ responses to assignment tasks and are essential for tracking progress and providing feedback. In most cases, Instructor review is required for a submission to be marked as complete.
How to ensure all submissions are reviewed by Instructors
Go to the course and open the Program tab.
Find the assignment you want to assign.
Select Settings.
Toggle on Requires review.
By default, all new assignments require instructor review. This ensures:
Learners receive constructive feedback or/and a score
Instructors can track progress and spot learning gaps
If you disable mandatory submissions' review, the assignment will be moved on automatically to the Done column.
Note: Ensure that Instructor(s) are assigned to review course assignments via the corresponding tab.
How to find Learners' submissions for assignments

Go to the Assignments tab.
Click on All courses (or choose a course from a drop-down list) to view submitted work.

Important: Assignments that Learners have not yet started working on are not visible on this Kanban Board.
Learners' submissions table view
The table view of all Learners' submissions is an alternative to the Kanban Board. You may switch to this table view in the top right corner of Assignments page:
Unlike the Kanban Board, the table view presents a comprehensive overview of submissions' statuses and statistics for the total submissions count per Learner.
The table view for submissions offers the ability to filter them by tags and assignments, and it can be exported in CSV file format if there is a need to have the statistics available at hand:
