The recommended method for giving feedback on papers, presentations, and other assignments that can be created with a word processor or presentation software is "Annotate PDF."

In order to use this tool, students must submit PDF files; directions for creating PDF are available in this classroom.  

In order to use "Annotate PDF," that option must be turned on in the "Feedback types" in the assignment settings; by default this is enabled, but if you have trouble accessing "Annotate PDF," check this is turned on for the specific assignment.
