When workflow is on in your assignment settings, marks will be hidden from students until you release them. Workflow is on by default on new assignments. This page shows you how to release marks to all or some students.

For information on how to turn marking workflow on, see here.

Note:

Quizzes do not use marking workflow. See How to release quiz marks.
