Once you have sent an assignment you cannot delete or remove it. You can, however, end it to prevent your students from answering it! 


Question assignments

Simply click on your assignment in the assignment overview page and click 'End now'.

Clicking on End now will close the assignment from responses.

Note: If an assignment is set to accept late submissions, it will not be removed from the student’s dashboard unless completed.

Book assignments

Your assignment should be under the 'Active Assignments', click on your book assignment. Clicking a book assignment from within the assignment tab takes you to the book assignment overview page.

Book assignment data can be accessed through the assignment tab or the textbook

The “edit assignment” button in the top right of the book assignment header allows you to edit details or end the assignment.

Edit the assignment by clicking on the pencil icon on the top right corner
