❗️Before you can edit an assignment, you must first copy it to My Assignments. For instructions, see How do I browse and choose assignments?
From the My Assignments page, locate the assignment you'd like to edit. If you have a lot of assignments, you can use the class filter or search bar to quickly find it.
Tip: It's best to edit assignments before assigning them to students. If you make changes after students have started working, those changes may affect their existing work.
Click on the assignment you'd like to edit.
Then click "Edit".
In the Assignment Settings section, you can update the assignment title, add an audio or video mini-lesson, change the scoring option and review interface, and select "Preview As Student" at any time to see the assignment from the student's perspective.
Note: Uploaded audio and video files are limited to 80 MB. In-app recordings are limited to 5 minutes.
Select "More" to access additional assignment settings. From here, you can edit the learning objective, configure how assignment sections are displayed, add or update the assignment image, add a teacher description, and select the AI grading version.
In the Prompt section you can edit the prompts for the assignment. If there are multiple prompts, use the arrows or dropdown to select a prompt.
Click the blue pencil icon to edit the prompt. For more details on editing a prompt click here.
Click the + icon to add a new prompt or duplicate an existing prompt for differentiation.
Click the menu icon to manage prompts or create a modeled response.
Below the Prompt section, you'll find the assignment sections displayed as tabs. Select a tab to edit that section. To add a new section, select the + icon. To manage existing sections, select the More menu.
Writable includes two types of assignment sections:
Single Response sections provide one response area paired with a required rubric. Rubrics are used for student self-review, peer review, and teacher grading. Check out these articles for more detailed information on editing rubrics and rubric items.
Multi Response sections support multiple response types, including multiple choice, short response, and graphic organizers. These types of questions are associated with a singular rubric item.
To edit a multi response section, select "Edit Section".
From the section editor, you can add new questions by clicking "Add Entry", edit existing questions, or select "Preview" to see how an individual question will appear to students before publishing your changes.
When you've finished editing your assignment, scroll to the top of the page and select "Preview As Student" to review the assignment from your students' perspective. Any changes you make are saved automatically.
