How do I create and assign assignments?

To create an assignment:

1) Access the group to which the student or students you want to assign it belong.

2) Open the "Assignments" tab.

3) Click on "New assignment".



4) Write the name and description of the assignment and select its start and due dates.


5) If you want to upload your own files, click on "upload files". You can add text files (txt), PDF, images (JPG or PNG), videos (mp4) and audio files (wav, mp3).



6) Select the textbook whose content you wish to add to the assignment. At the bottom of the screen, you will see all the textbooks associated to the group.


If you haven't associated textbooks to the group yet, you won't see any books in the "Add contents" section. To associate textbooks to the group, go back to the group screen and click on "Edit" on the top right corner. Then, open the "Contents" tab and select the book or books you wish to use in that group.



7) To select the content, click on the textbook you want to assign activities from. Click on the blue "+" sign to add content. To unfold a section, you must click on its name or on the horizontal bar. If you click on "+", you will be adding all of its contents.



If you wish to remove content that you had already added to the assignment, click on the white circle you will see where the "+" sign was.



When you have finished, click on "Add".

If you want to add more activities from the same or another textbook, click on "Add more".



8) You can check the list of students who will receive the assignment in "students selected". By default, the assignment will be assigned to all the members of the group. Click on the pencil icon to check the list of members.


In the "Edit students" window, you will be able to select or unselect members of the group so that they can receive the assignment or not. The red icon with the exclamation mark next to a name indicates that the student does not have an active access to the content you are assigning. The student will receive the assignment, but will not be able to open or complete it until they activate their access to the content.


9) Finally, click on "Assign" at the bottom of the page to complete the creation of the assignment.
