notify me (the teacher) when a student turns in an assignment
As a teacher of 7 different classes, I have to go into each assignment individually to see when students turn in assignments. This is very time-consuming! Please allow me to set up a notification when a student turns in an assignment.

Thanks for all of the feedback on this one. We are reviewing how we can improve notifications around Assignments in Teams. Please keep the feedback coming!

Please create an option of student assignment turn-in notifications.

Just get it done stupid microsoft. Brightspace and google classroom can do it. I am being forced by my employer to use your crappy software. You could at least give it this important piece of functionality. Seems like you have been fielding this request for a few years now. What's the hold up?

Yes, PLEASE add this feature to Assignments - the absence of it nearly puts me off from using Assignments, and I surely would avoid using it had our school not decided that we should.

Not having this ability creates at lot of red minutes for schools, less valuable time with students and sour stomach

The ability to receive email notifications when assignments are turned in on time, late, or re-submitted is necessary.

This is an invaluable and very necessary feature to meet the practical realities of the classroom.

We absolutely need this feature as it is very time consuming to either go through Assignments -> clicking on the assignment and then checking to see if "Student X" submitted that assignment yet or not or checking out Insights and seeing what the student has accomplished

This is a MUST for schools using Teams. It is SO hard having to go through every old assignment to see if students have turned in their work.

As someone else put it below: "This would be great for late or resubmitted work."
Please!

I have 360 students and it's a nightmare going back through old assignments to find late subs. Filtering by late submission (or status in general) would be very useful.

Yes, when I have lots of assignments, it's nice to know which specific one has a returned assignment.

I have five classes and many assignments and it’s nearly impossible to keep up with submitted work not to mention late assignments and resubmitted assignments. Many assignments get lost in the gradebook since I am not notified if I have ungraded assignments.

I also would like some kind of notification when a student has resubmitted an assignment. Schoology's structure for grading was helpful and easy to navigate. I'm not finding the grading in Teams easy to navigate for myself or my students. Thank you for listening.

In my perfect world, this feature would work like it does in MS Forms (with one addition). A teacher can turn on/off notifications for a particular assignment. For example, I don't want notifications for every assignment turned in by every student (I have 150 students at a time). However, I would like notifications after I've scored an assignment. So I could change the setting on that assignment to turn on notifications after I've finished scoring it.
The one addition that I think would be helpful for teachers is a global default and being able to change that. Some teachers might actually prefer to get notifications for all assignments and just want to turn that off on a few, while I would want it the opposite way. So having the ability to set the default setting for that (similar to how we can change the default channel for assignments to post to), while also having the ability to override that with each individual assignment. Thank you!

As a teacher of 15 different sections (this semester alone) knowing if an assignment is resubmitted is quite a task. As of now, if a student needs to edit or resubmit their assignment, the only way I can tell is if I click on the assignment under the grades tab and scroll through all the names, looking for “turned in” below their name. Is there a way to change the color or text on the grades page next to the students name and under the assignment as an indicator that it’s been resubmitted to lessen the burden of the teacher?

I would like to receive notifications when a student turns in an assignment late. It is a pain to go back and check all assignments for missing work. I don't need an email when students complete assignments on time. I will be able to see those when I go into grade the assignment.
