You can download an accessible PDF version of this answer at the bottom of the page. Alternatively, watch the screencast overview of these instructions on Panopto.
Before submitting your work, always make sure you’ve identified the correct submission type.
Instructions
- To change your submission, navigate to the assignment portal on Space, choose one of the following options:
- Edit submission – allows you to update parts of the submission without withdrawing it. You can update the assignment length, for example. Note, if you want to edit the Show post too, you’d have to switch the one selected for submission for another, save, and then switch it back once edited.
- Remove submission – this withdraws your submission, removes all the files you uploaded, and deselects the Show post from the submission portal; allowing you to edit it.
- If you select "remove submission", click "continue" on the next screen to confirm you are withdrawing your submission.
Editing Your File Submission
- You can add additional files simply by dragging and dropping them into the file submission box
- To remove one of your files, first click on its thumbnail
- In the pop-up window, select “delete”
- Finally, confirm that you wish to delete your file
- You can then drag and drop a replacement file into the file submission box
- If you’re replacing a file, or adding another one, you must wait for the upload progress to fully complete before you can save your changes
Changing Your Show Post
- Show posts cannot be edited once they have been selected for submission, if you wish to make changes to your post you must first remove it from the submission portal on Space
- You can check if your post is submitted by navigating to your posts on Show, and referring to the “submission status” column
- Before you can edit your post, you’ll need to either:
- Completely remove your submission, see step 1, however this will also remove any file(s) you’ve uploaded
- Switch your post to another one temporarily, so you can make your changes and then resubmit your updated post, refer to the following steps to do this.
- Edit your submission and go to the “Choose a Show post…” field in the submission form and change it to a different, ‘holding’ post. You may have to create a new Show post first.
- Save changes in order to switch your post over to the ‘holding’ one.
- You can now see that your ‘holding’ post is selected in your submission
- This means that the post your previously submitted is unlocked and can now be edited.
- Navigate to your posts on Show, hover over the post you need to make changes to, and choose “edit”.
- Once you’ve made your changes to the post, press “save” in the top-right.
- Now go back to the submission portal and choose “edit submission”
- In the “Choose a Show post…” field, change it back to your updated post
- Now you have made the changes to your files and/or Show post, completed the other fields on the submission form:
- Check the declaration box
- Update your assignment length in words and/or minutes as indicated by the assignment brief
- Press “save changes” to resubmit your assignment
- You will be returned to the submission status page, where you will be able to see your work has been submitted for grading. You can also click the title of your Show post to view it and check your specified assignment length on this page.
- Your work is ready to be marked by the assessors, check back once the grades have been released for your marks and feedback.
Changing Show and Files assignments after the deadline
If you wish to change your submission after the assignment deadline, you must complete the Submission Portal Unlock Form. Once your submission is unlocked, you can resubmit for up to 7 days after your deadline; be aware your work will be subject to a late penalty.
The above also applies if you have an extension granted by student support or approved additional consideration, and you want to change your submission after your extended deadline.
