Most notably, the question screen shows \"Displayname (Fullname)\", while the comparisons screen shows \"Fullname\". Which is the preferred approach: should we always show both (allowing instructors/TAs to regularly see/check display names) or just show full names (meaning less reading/parsing for instructors/TAs)?\r\n\r\nMichael also suggested perhaps we don't need display names. Instead, we could make submissions always anonymous for students (e.g., all student answers would read \"Student answered on January 26 at 5 p.m.\" to other students) and show only full names to instructors/TAs.\r\n\r\nPros: Instructors/TAs don't have to monitor display names (which students can now change to identify themselves or be inappropriate). Students are assured of anonymity.\r\nCons: Students can't have non-anonymous interactions with each other in the app. Instructors/TAs can't set up an assignment for a forum-like discussion."}}
