Copied the relevant section below:

Teaching Assistants CANNOT:

  • View or export student analytic data; teaching assistants cannot see the Analytics tab for the section.
  • View polling responses outside of the classroom; teaching assistants cannot see the Polling tab for the section. Teaching assistants can see responses for each slide IN the classroom, but these are not associated with individual students
