To set up a Google file as an Annotation template, you first have to create the activity template as a Google Drive document (you can use any kind, but Docs and Slides are probably most common).

Then, open Buzz's Editor:

1. Add an Assignment activity to your course.
2. In the Settings tab > Gradebook and submission card, check the This activity is gradable box.
3. In the Allowed submission types dropdown menu, select Student annotation.
4. Under Annotation template to use, click Choose Google file and select the template you created.

5. Once selected, you can Preview, Copy, or Remove the template.
6. Add content and configure your activity.

When students open the activity, they click the + Google file annotation button.

The template is copied and added to the student's Attachments. The student can then open it to make their edits and save their version to the submission. When submitted, a PDF snapshot is created and saved in the student activity history.

First, find or create the image that you want students to edit and submit.

Then, open Buzz's Editor:

1. Add an Assignment activity to your course.
2. In the Settings tab > Gradebook and submission card, check the This activity is gradable box.
3. In the Allowed submission types dropdown menu, select Student annotation.
4. Under Annotation template to use, click Choose image.

5. Find the image in your Resources or upload it.

6. The image appears as your Annotation template. To replace it, Remove template and upload a new image.
7. Add content and configure your activity.

When the student opens the activity, they click the + Image annotation button to open the image and edit it.

Students use Buzz's drawing tool to edit the image and Save changes.

Once saved, the image is attached. Students can:

1. Preview it
2. Edit it
3. Download it
4. Delete it
5. Add a new Image annotation
6. Submit their work
