Allow Reassign Button to Override Submission Limit for Student

[bourjaim]

Currently, to "Reassign" an assignment, that assignment must be set to allow multiple submissions from students.  This becomes an issue because students can continually submit work that has already been accepted and graded. 

The "reassign" function should allow a student to submit the same number of submissions as the original assignment.  That way, individual students could be given an opportunity to correct and/or redo assignments as necessary, without opening up an entire assignment to repeated submissions from the class.

Good morning, @bourjaim ...

This might be a good candidate for a Feature Idea here in the Canvas Community.  Would you be willing to submit this as a Feature Idea?  If so, please refer to the following documents:

• How do idea conversations work in the Instructure Community?
• What is the feature development process for Instructure products?
• How do I create a new idea conversation in the Instructure Community?

Let Community members know if you have any questions about this process...thanks!

Sure why not I got time

I agree with this. The inability to 'allow additional attempt' or 'ignore attempt' in Canvas assignment makes it difficult to manage these workflows. I like the reassign for the communication around a student allowed to resubmit, but the lack of the update on the number of submission limits is 

Commenting here as I cannot comment or star on the Idea Conversation.
