itslearning Submission Status Change

If you are a frequent user of Assignments in itslearning, you may have noticed that the submission statuses look a little different now.

Previously, you would have seen:

Status
Submission edits 2
Turned in

Sometimes, you may have also seen a pesky status called "PAC Submission." If it appeared on an assignment, it became the default because it was first alphabetically (PAC, Status, Submission, Turned).

To keep that from happening. we have renamed the different statuses so that the most important are first alphabetically AND made them a little more. You'll now see:

A. Submission with no edits (Status)
B. Submission with edit access
Turned in

Hopefully, this will solve the previous problem!

Thanks to coming updates, that problem is now solved! When it gets to us (hopefully by the time we return from Spring Break!), you will be able to:
