{bgcolor:E6E6FA} h3. Commenting on a Homework Submission {bgcolor}
Both instructors and students can add comments providing feedback on a homework submission.
* As an instructor, you can flag your comments as private, which means the comments can be read only by the student and the class/section instructor and staff.
* Students commenting on their own submissions can also flag a comment as private, which makes it visible only to that student and the class/section instructor and staff.
* Students' comments on other students' submissions are always public. (Students can comment on each others homework only if you have selected the assignment option to allow them access to each others homework.)
* The name of the person posting the comment is always displayed. (There are no anonymous comments.)
* You can also upload or attach a file to a comment.
{info:title=You can comment on a student's assignment without that student handing in a submission.}

{bgcolor:E6E6FA} h3. The Submission Table {bgcolor}
A submissions table provides the following information on homework submissions:
# Student: The name of the student(s) for which you can view homework submissions.
A Submissions Details link under a student's name indicates that the student has submitted homework. Click the link to view the [Submission Details & Comments/Grade page|About Submission Details, Comments, and Grades].
Note:: A submission table lists all known class members at the time the assignment was posted. Any students who added the class after the assignment was posted have access to the assignment and can submit homework. Once that student has submitted homework, Stellar adds the student to the table.
# Docs: The number of documents or submissions the student has uploaded for this homework assignment.
# Last submit: The latest date on which the student submitted homework for this assignment.
# Comments: The total number of comments entered: comments entered by the student to the instructor and staff, comments entered by the instructor and staff to the student, and comments of other class/section member.
# Grade: The student's grade for this assignment's homework. The grade is displayed as of the date specified on the Add Assignment or Edit Assignment page.
\\
Note: A student can see only his or her grade. Even if all students' can view and comment on each others' homework, no student can see another student's grade.
Submission tables automatically sort information alphabetically by students' last names. To change the sort order, click a column heading.
*Note:* On the All Submissions page, Stellar collapses the assignment tables until one student submits a homework assignment. At that point, Stellar expands that table to list all class or section members.
