Some activities your teacher assigns are graded. You’ll know because the activity shows a due date on your dashboard, and a status chip that tracks where you stand — from “In progress” all the way to “Results ready.” Here’s how the whole cycle works.

Before the due date: do your work

Open the activity and work exactly the way you always do — add your pins to the map, build your timeline, fill in your diagram or chart, study your flash cards. The due date is shown at the top of the activity while you work. Your status chip shows In progress once you’ve started.

Submitting your work

When you’re done, press Submit your work in the activity. ChimeEdu asks you to confirm — because after you submit:
  • Your work is locked. You can still look at everything, but you can’t change it.
  • Your status changes to Submitted.
Submitting is final (unless your teacher reopens it — see below). Make sure you’re actually done before you confirm.
A few activity types work slightly differently:
  • Group activities — if you’re working in a group, any member can submit, and it submits for the whole group. Everyone’s editing locks together, and your teacher can see who pressed Submit.
  • Flash cards — submitting means “I’m done studying.” Your study progress for that deck is frozen where you left it.
  • Fill-in-the-blank — a graded fill-in-the-blank asks you to sign in first, and you get one attempt. When you submit your answers, that’s your submission.

If the due date passes

If you haven’t submitted when the due date arrives, the activity locks and your status shows Incomplete (you started but didn’t submit) or Missed (you never started). Don’t panic — talk to your teacher. They can reopen your work so you can finish, even after the due date.

Getting your grade

After you submit, your teacher reviews and grades your work. You won’t see anything until they release your results — then your status chip changes to Results ready. Click it (or the View your results link inside the activity) to open your results page, which shows:
  • Your grade — a letter, a percentage, or both, depending on how your teacher set it up
  • Your teacher’s written feedback
  • When you submitted and when results were released
If your chip still says Submitted, your teacher just hasn’t released results yet. Grades are never visible before the teacher sends them.

Common questions

Not on your own — ask your teacher to reopen your submission. That unlocks your work so you can keep going and submit again.
No. Your work, your grade, and your feedback are between you and your teacher. In a group activity, your group shares the work and the grade — but other groups can’t see it.
Either you (or a group member) submitted, or the due date passed. The banner in the activity tells you which. If you need to keep working, ask your teacher to reopen it.

Assessments

Question-and-answer assignments work similarly — submit, then see results when your teacher releases them.
