Returned assignments should show up as "Graded" or as "Needs Revised."
When I return an assignment to a student for any reason, it just says "Returned." There should be an easy way for the student to see if the assignment has been "Graded" or if it "Needs Revised" so that the student knows there is more they need to do.

You can now Return assignment for revision to the student. For more information on how to use this support article.

It would be helpful if when an assignment is returned as "needs revision" it showed up as "returned" for the teacher. I find it so frustrating to see the mismatched "17 turned in" and "15 returned" when the other 2 need revisions. I HAVE returned them, the student hasn't fixed them yet.

This would be very useful as I often have students who 'turn in' an assignment even though it is incomplete. And as other users have said, it would be even better if appeared back on their assigned list as some don't check 'returned work'.

This would be awesome! When I start with a new group of students, we go over how they will get the message the assignment is returned after I have looked at it. But I regularly will have students message me asking why it was returned instead of actually checking it themselves! The ability to assign different messages to return to work… Such as graded or do over… Would be awesome

Redo would be a great option

I totally agree! We need to have a second option when returning. AND returned work for correction/completion should go back into the students "to do" assignments and not stay in completed.
Students need to have assignments up front and in plain sight. -

We NEED this ability! Students can't even see the grade and feedback without clicking on the assignment!

This is exactly my problem too. If I don't return the work, the child is not prompted to look at it at all. A lot of wasted time could be eliminated by adding ' Return for Revision' as an aternative to ' Return completed'

This would be a huge improvement to my use of Teams. As discussed below, so many students submit incomplete work which needs to be returned for improvements. When I do this it still shows as returned, so I have to manually work through each assigment student by student to work out who falls under which category and which student may have updated their work for further review. A workflow cycle which enabled you to push it back to the assigned status (where no work has been completed) or improvement status (where it could be reviewed and updated by the student) would help hugely.

Useful to stop students handing nothing

Children are often turning in blank assignments, and trying to keep track of who has ACTUALLY completed an assignment and which assignments are marked as 'completed' because I have sent them back asking for them to complete their work. Work that needs to be completed needs to be put back into the children's 'Assigned' section or else they'll miss it.
The school I'm at has children as young as 7 using Teams for their home learning - it really needs to be as clear as possible to children when they need to go back and complete an assignment.

Students are frequently turning in blank or incomplete assignments so that it appears to their parents (in the weekly summary email or if they look at the student's assignment list directly) that the assignment has been completed/handed in. We urgently need a way to return incomplete work to the student such that it is moved back into their 'assigned'/to do list and shows up as incomplete (to the student and also parents looking at the summary email).

1) Don’t allow nothing to be handed in.
2) allow teachers to select “redo”. -

I second that,, many of my students loose track of late assignments as it was moved to (completed) after I return them to fix their work!

Either a REDO or NEEDS Revision Section is needed.

In order for students and their parents to quickly find assignments that need completion or revision, a REDO Assignment section is needed. Currently, if they don't look at the Returned Assignments and feedback, they aren't aware there is a problem unless they view their grades.

Or could be marked "Incomplete" and have a new section for that.

Please create this option! Students turning in blank work to fool their parents is becoming a huge problem!

This is the biggest flaw of assignments in Teams. There must be a clear way to return assignments that then appear in the to-do list of students rather than in completed. It’s far too easy for students to tell their parents they did the work because it’s in completed assignments when nothing was turned in. I can’t hold students accountable with no way to return work for corrections. PLEASE fix this!
