    Typial usecase to be supported - student writes into his/her workbook and takes a photo and submits as PDF, teacher shall be able to edit it. I have iPad, which I would like to use natively to edit with Apple Pencil, like I was used to do using Seesaw.me at my previous school. I found a workaround, but it is horrible - install OneDrive app, then need to go through Shared Libraries, select your class/team, then click through Student Work/Submitted files/Student name/Assignment name/Version of the assignment and only then select the file. You can edit the file on OneDrive and an option to write is available. Obviously view by Assignment/Student/File would be much easier for human. So funny thing is that functionality is there, though limited (on OneDrive], but MS is just not allowing to call it and allow at least minimal PDF editing....

    I really wanted to embrace Teams but because there is no function to edit a students uploaded picture of their work, I had to revert back and use our VLE so that I can edit the students work. They need to upload photos of their work as we have preprinted workbooks. As this function is not available we only really use Teams for Live lessons which is a shame, as there is so much more great things about Teams but using two platforms can be a little too much...

    Yep - we need this.... Please add support to edit PDF's that students submit via Assignments. Currently it is complete nonsense to go this route as they submit a file that you have to save, edit and then... *somehow* share back to the student...and not via the assignment it was originally submitted in - creates confusion all around

    I can’t believe this isn’t something that’s already integrated. It’s killing us teachers with the transition to online learning

    A lot of curriculum packages come in PDF format. The conversion to Word is almost not usable given the formatting issues that come when PDF is converted to DOCX. Onenote with the image printed to the background only works ok. Busy work sheets run into issues with text box overlaps. There must be a product the you could add to the available addins that would give students the ability to more simply, smoothly and logically add text and mark ups directly to a PDF. Please give a better experience for this. Teachers would love you for doing it!
