For that matter, your UI should know whether all the required components of an assignment have been completed (admittedly, that's not the same as finishing the assignment as a whole unless the last component is required, but I imagine a single submit button at the end of the whole thing would be a reasonable compromise).

Jun 22, 2015 at 14:49 comment added Mattias Bregnballe Yes, but it is not always just a text. It could be an assignment of sorts. Navigating to another step does not mean you have finished the assignment.
Jun 22, 2015 at 14:45 comment added Dinei @MattiasBregnballe, in this case, I agree with @theotherone : you shouldn't have a Done button. When you open an e-mail, for example, you don't have to "mark it as read", it is marked automatically as read and you can "mark it as unread" again, if you want.
Jun 22, 2015 at 14:31 comment added Mattias Bregnballe They can see it in a menu to the left where they also can navigate between the pages. It is definately there to help the user remember what he has finished/hasn't finished.
Jun 22, 2015 at 14:10 comment added DaveAlger Is there some other place in the application where users can see a list of things they marked as Done versus Not Done? I too would remove this checkbox unless it is there for the user because even the I agree checkboxes at the end of EULA doesn't mean anything was read.
Jun 22, 2015 at 13:52 comment added Mattias Bregnballe Thanks for answering. Users click done when they have read the text. Not for compliance reasons. They can go to the next or previous page regardless of being done with the page. Regarding the look of the checkbox, check this link : uxmovement.com/forms/….
