Display respondents' names in front of their answers in the Essay Box question type. Hovering on those names will display the response date (useful esp. in cases of multiple responses by same user) and clicking on them will take you to that response display (individual) page.
For obvious privacy reasons, that "names" feature is not available to students, only to teachers. More exactly, it is only available to roles who have the View complete individual responsesmod/questionnaire:viewsingleresponse capability, either site-wide, course-wide or just for the questionnaire instance.
