It would really help if you could add the ability for students to turn text into a link in the online submission text field of the drop box. The only way this can currently be done is for a person to go into the HTML editor - and they would need to know how to do that! That common feature that you have throughout this product would save teachers a ton of time. We have a work-around for this, but this would be a MUCH better solution!
Yes, please! Students should be able to paste a link into the Online Submission Text box and it should act as a link. Currently, when students submit links, the teacher has to copy the link, open a new tab in their browser, and paste the link to view the students assignment submission.
