Joel VannerIf resubmissions are allowed for an assignment and a student needs to resubmit their paper, they can select the New Attempt button at the top right of the assignment in Canvas, as long as the assignment does not limit students to one attempt.
If the student resubmits an edited paper, it will not compare to the first submission they made (i.e. they will not match the text to the previous submission resulting in a 90% match score).
