Create and Post Assignments

You can create and post as many assignments for a class as you wish.

To post a new assignment for a class:

  1. On the Class Instructing screen, click » Manage Assignment next to the class name.
  2. On the Class Assignments screen, click Add Assignment.
  3. Enter a name and description for the assignment, and assign a percentage weight to the assignment.

    For example, enter 40 if this assignment will account for 40% of the total assignment score for the class. This percentage does not represent the percentage that all assignments contribute to the final grade.

  4. Use the calendars to select a Date/Time when the assignment will be posted for students to see and an Expiration Date/Time, after which students cannot submit the assignment.
  5. Click Select Files if you want to upload any materials related to the assignment.
  6. Click Submit.

    An email is sent to all students in the class, notifying them of the assignment.
