How do I edit or resubmit an assignment?

Once submitted, you cannot edit your assignment. To resubmit, first check the assignment settings to see if multiple attempts are allowed. If the option to resubmit is unavailable and you need to correct an error, you must email your instructor for permission to submit a new version.
