There are Annotation Tools that can be enabled within Avenue to Learn by ticking the box for “Make annotation tools available for assessment” (found at the bottom of the page) when creating or editing an assignment submission folder. With these tools enabled, you can highlight text, draw, and leave comments in various formats on documents submitted by students within the evaluation screen. It is important to note, however, that these annotations are not fully accessible and cause issues with some screen readers.
