Sending book assignments is a great way to ask students to prepare ahead of the next lesson. Of course, you can also create assignments and send them later!
Locate the relevant class, click the "Create Assignment" button, and select "Book assignment" from the dropdown menu.
Select the sections you wish to assign to the class.
When you're ready, click 'Step 2' at the bottom right of the page.
Customise your assignment.
Create a name for your assignment.
Check recipients or send to multiple classes (on the same subject) by clicking "Select recipients" and selecting specific classes or students.
Make sure to check the box beside the name of the class/classes you intend to send the assignment to.
If you wish to select individual students, click the dropdown menu beside the class name to view the students in the class, check/uncheck the box beside their name and click on 'Update recipients'.
Rearrange the sections if necessary and add a instructions for your students.
Set a deadline.
Click "Review and Schedule" to send it later, "Review and Send" to send it now, or "Finish later" to save the assignment without sending it immediately.
What happens once I have sent the assignment?
All recipients will receive an email notifying them that they have an assignment to complete. The assignment will also appear in the assignment dashboard when they log in.
When the deadline has passed, the assignment will be automatically marked and a report with the assignment results will be sent to your email.
