View Your Students' Code for Coding Labs Assignments

From the MindTap gradebook, open the GitHub code editor to review your students' code. You are automatically added as a contributor.

To open the gradebook, click > Gradebook.
Click a student's activity score.

If there is no score, click the double dashes (--).
To view your student's answers for an attempt, click View or Grade.
Click Detailed Review.

Your student's latest code opens in a new browser tab in the GitHub code editor.

Note

You can view code only after your student makes a submission.
This means that you can't view code for practice assignments.
The code you see is not specific to any of the student's attempts. It is the latest code in the student's codespace.
Because you are added to the codespace as a contributor, you can add comments or updates in your student's code.
