Editing an Assignment for a Single Class or Group:

1. From your Teacher Dashboard, select the Edit icon on your chosen assignment. 

 

  • If you choose to edit an individual copy of an assignment that was originally sent to multiple classes or groups, you will see a message asking you to confirm that you want to edit that copy only. 

    • Selecting Yes, Edit This Copy will unlink that assignment from the other class copies. Any future changes made using Edit All Copies will not apply to this unlinked assignment. 

    • If you would like your changes to apply to all classes, be sure to edit the parent assignment instead.

 

2. When editing a single assignment, you may be able to update details such as the image, assignment title, prompts, and assignment date range.

If no students have interacted with the assignment yet, all of these details can be edited. Select the Pencil (Edit) Icon to edit the image, prompts, and/or assignment title

 

However, once a student has interacted with the assignment, the image, title, and prompts will become locked. In this case, you can still update the assignment date range if needed.

 

3. After making your updates, select Edit Assignment to apply them to the assignment.

 

Editing an Assignment Sent to Multiple Classes or Groups (Batch Editing)

  1. From your Teacher Dashboard, navigate to the Assignments page and locate the assignment you want to edit.

    If the assignment was sent to multiple classes or groups, it will appear as a parent assignment with a caret on the left. Expand the parent assignment to see all class or group copies.


To edit all copies at once, select the Pencil (Edit) icon next to the parent assignment and confirm by selecting Yes, Edit All.

 

2. When editing the assignment, you may be able to update details such as the image, assignment title, prompts, and assignment date range.

If no students have interacted with the assignment yet, all of these details can be edited. Select the Pencil (Edit) Icon to edit the image, prompts, and/or assignment title

 

However, once a student has interacted with the assignment, the image, title, and prompts will become locked. In this case, you can still update the assignment date range if needed.

3. After making your updates, select Edit Assignment to apply them to the assignment.

 

If a student is rostered in more than one of the classes you selected, they will receive the assignment multiple times. When this happens, you’ll see a Duplicate Student Warning before editing the assignment.

This message ensures you’re aware that:

  • The student will have multiple copies of the assignment.

  • You will see the student listed multiple times in the submissions view.

Select Confirm if you would like to continue, or select Cancel to adjust your selected classes or use Groups for more targeted assigning.
