Can students see edits to assignments before I hit "Return"?

Good Morning,    My school is using Teams for the first time and a great concern of many of the teachers is that students might be able to view edits to documents before the teacher hits "Return". ...

    gyoung1553 Hi, I ended up dowloading the work onto my computer before correcting it, and sending the file back to students when I was ready for them to see it.

SaJaDu Did you find a workaround for this?  I see this as a major limitation for Teams as a education platform.  Students should not be able to see any feedback until 'return' is selected by teachers.

 

Thanks

      SaJaDu I am writing this as of 05 August 2022 and I would assure you that students can see corrections on Teams even before you hit a return button. It is simply a total joke! It destroys the confidence for proper data protection and causes anxiety to students. I am not sure if Teams team were ready to prepare this app as a platform for education. I think it was meant for company meetings.
