Click in the Search field at the top and type in the Student's name as it appears in the Google Classroom assignment
A list of files submitted by that student will appear
Check the "Owner" column - each file SHOULD have the Student's name in the "Owner" column
If a file has "Me" listed, this file will throw an error when the associated Assignment is Returned
Right-Click on each file with the wrong permission, and select "Share"
Next to the Student's name, you should see the word "Viewer" - click that and change it to "Owner"
Follow the prompts to make the change final
Repeat for each file with the wrong permission
Return to Google Classroom and Return Assignments as usual
