Submit and replace work in Schoolwork
Submitting your work allows you to demonstrate learning to your teacher, and is as easy as handing in a piece of paper. You can submit work for any assignment where your teacher explicitly requested a hand-in activity.
After you submit your work, you can no longer make changes to the file. To make changes, edit your original copy, then replace it in Schoolwork. Keep in mind your teacher can still edit the file to provide feedback and guidance, then you can review the edits and replace the file again if necessary.
If the assignment contains a deadline and you submit your work after the deadline (23:59 local time on the deadline date), Schoolwork indicates that your work is late.
Note: You need an Internet connection to submit work to a hand-in activity. If your internet connection is interrupted, you can continue working but you cannot submit your work. Once a connection is re-established, you can submit your work to the hand-in activity.
