Bulk uploading assignment feedback files, comments and grades

Summary

Moodle Assignments now support bulk uploading of assignment response files (contain comments & tracked changes). You can also upload grades and general comments using an excel spreadsheet that can be downloaded from the Assignment. 

Bulk uploading assignment feedback files can save you a lot of time, as you can upload them in one step, rather than one-by-one as you used to have to do.

Make sure the bulk upload settings are enabled
