Enable anonymous submissions
Anonymous submissions enable student assignments to be displayed anonymously as a Participant number rather than by their name. This is a useful way to reduce unconscious bias in grading. Anonymous submissions must be set up prior to any student submissions being made. Once a submission has been received, you can no longer enable anonymous submissions in the assignment settings.
Note: If a student has included their name in their assignment submission, it will still be visible.
