  • Take note of how many submissions are ready to grade. You can also access new submissions from the stream. 
  • Enjoy a bird's eye view of course activity and direct access to course items.
  • Filter your view. Use the Filter menu and choose Show All, Assignments and Tests or Grades and Feedback.
