# How to Create an Assignment and Locate an Existing Assignment

To make an assignment, locate the resource you want to assign, and select **Assign**. For example, to assign a chapter Vocabulary Quiz, you will go to the chapter, locate the Vocabulary Quiz andassign. To assign a Benchmark, you will go to the Introduction and Extras folder, find the Benchmark andassign. Here are step-by-step instructions for making an assignment:

 

1\. From your dashboard of classes, select the **Course** for the class.

6\. Make your selections. \*\*Please see details below or skip to # 7.

 Assignment details include:

- Who to assign to - which students will receive the assignment and how you will manage the assignment.  
    - Class (Individual Assignments) - assigns to every student in the class as **individual assignments.** Edits can be managed by class or by individual student assignments.  
      \*Teachers can easily assign to every student in a class but also make changes for individuals. 
    - Groups (Individual Assignments) - assigns to every student in the group as **individual assignments.** Edits will be managed by group or individual student assignments.  
      \*Assigning to Groups allows teachers to easily assign to a subset of students while also allowing changes to be made for individuals rather than the whole group. 
    - Individual - assigns to selected individuals. Edits are managed by **individual assignments**.
    - All Classes (Individual Assignments) - assigns to selected classes within the same grade level. \*Teachers can easily assign to every student in multiple classes of the same grade level but also make changes for individuals. 
- Assignment nickname (visible to you and to students) (OPTIONAL)
- Start date and time - when access will open for students). An assignment is "locked" to students until the start date and time.
- Due date and time - when access will cut off for students
- Allow late settings - beyond the due date, teachers can allow late submissions by setting a late due date. Late assignment submissions will have a late symbol in submissions on the submitted date. Scores will not be affected by a late submission. (OPTIONAL)
- Settings for Reports and Grading (managing if and when to release the grades to reports, share grades with students, and allow students to review a submitted assignment)   
    - Release to Reports  - Data will move to reports when the submission status changes or is changed to graded.

- - Release grades to students - Students will see scores once submission is graded.
    - Students can review work - Students will have access to review the submitted assignment immediately. Please note, allowing review does not allow students to make changes.

8\. As a way to easily assign a resource to various students or groups of students with different due dates and times, after selecting assign, you will see a pop up confirming the creation of your assignment and asking if you want to assign this resource to other students. If you would like to make an additional assignment of this resource to another student or group of students, select **Yes**.  If you do not want to make an additional assignment, select **No**.
