Teachers waste significant class time helping students with technical issues uploading assignments to the LMS, dealing with unviewable documents, and managing late submissions and format errors.

Workarounds Described

• Helping students upload documents during class time
• Manually checking and marking unviewable documents as missing
• Managing late penalty negotiations individually
• Reviewing and correcting format errors manually

Implied Software Gaps

• Automated file validation that prevents unviewable submissions
• Grace period management system that handles late submissions automatically
• Format checking tool that validates citations and formatting before submission
