I created a group assignment. Can individual students see their group mate's submissions? If they can, is there a way that they cannot see each other's submissions in the same group?
Hi @degrusonm,
In Canvas, when you create a group assignment, the system is setup to treat it as a collaborative assignment, meaning the group members are all going to work together on one submission. When any single group member makes a submission, the submission will show as being for everyone in the group. You can choose to grade individually, but that just means you can enter a different score for student 1 and student 2, but for the same submission. The How do I assign an assignment to a course group? - Instructure Community - 633 guide goes in to a but more detail on this.
From your question, it sounds like you don't want to configure the assignment as a group assignment in Canvas. You could still have the students work together in reality, but have their work all be separate and individually submitted and graded.
Hope this helps!

This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
