Choose what students see after they submit an assessment. The student dashboard gives students access to completed assessments and answer sheets, and as a teacher, you control when they can view their scores, feedback, and answers. Score visibility and correct-answer visibility are separate settings; this article walks through both.

Hide or release scores
Scores are hidden by default so students don’t see how they performed immediately after submitting the assessment.
We recommend keeping scores hidden if you need time to grade open-response items or finalize scores before sharing them with students.
You can schedule a date and time for students to review their results and feedback. You can change this setting at any time, even after students have completed the assessment.
Step-by-Step:
Open the Library and select the assessment.
You’ll be guided to the purple Assign settings page.
For each roster, turn Release student scores off or on
If you want scores to appear later, set a release date and time.
👀 What Students See
When scores are hidden, students see a completion checkmark but not their score.
When scores are released, students can see:
Their overall score
Their answer sheet, including:
The phenomenon
Which questions they answered correctly or incorrectly
Correct answers remain hidden unless you release them separately.
Any feedback you provided on free-response questions
Hide or show correct answers
The correct answers are hidden by default. We recommend waiting until students have completed the assessment before releasing them.
Step-by-Step:
Open the Library and select the assessment.
You’ll be guided to the purple Assign settings page.
For each roster, leave the setting off to keep answers hidden, or turn it on to release them.
Please note that the answer sheet needs to be released (Release Student Scores) first before you can release the correct answers.
Choose how many days students can view the answers. The default is 7 days.
Correct answers appear one question at a time and are available only for the time range you selected.
Please set the "show answer" date AFTER the "release score" date, or else your students will not be able to view their answer sheet.
