Can I edit a book assignment after sending it?

How to edit assignments after sending.

Written by Karla Cetina

Note that only the following can be changed:

  • Title of the assignment

  • Instructions

  • Deadline

  • Message

In addition, once the deadline has passed you may open the assignment, click Edit assignment, choose a new deadline and save. Students who haven’t finished will be notified, and they can submit until the new deadline. (This isn’t available for exam-style question assignments yet.)

If you only wish for individual students to complete, you may copy the assignment and resend it. You can find the step-by-step guide on how to copy and resend assignments in our help center.

  1. Go to the ‘Assignments' tab and under ‘Active Assignments', click on the assignment you wish to edit.

  2. If you wish to edit a book assignment, you will find the edit button in the top right corner (the pencil).
