The **Upload Templates** area allows you to upload supporting documents or starter files (.docx, .pdf, .pptx, etc.) that students can use to complete the assignment. Finally, use the **Confirmation Message** field to customize the message learners see after submitting their work. This can be a motivational note, next steps, or simply a thank-you message to reinforce the completion. These tools work together to create a more engaging and informative assignment experience within your membership product.

## **What Happens When Someone Submits a Quiz?**

Understanding the post-submission behavior helps you manage the learner experience. Based on how the quiz is configured, learners will receive different feedback.

**If Passing Grade is enabled:** Learners see their score, which answers were correct/incorrect—but not the correct answer itself.

**If Passing Grade is disabled:** They will also see the correct answer and any explanations added.

Learners can review their previous submission and retake the quiz if needed. This helps reinforce learning or improve performance.
