Add custom content: Edit or create items

Updated 03 Feb 2024

In addition to using publisher-provided content, you can add your own items to the course's Item Library by editing or creating assignable items. In Mastering, these are known as My Items. The easiest way to do this is with the Mastering Simple Editor.

To add your own assignment as a Mastering assignment, see Freehand Grader assignments.

Assignable items

In Mastering, your customized items (items you edit, create, or import) are known as My Items. Until My Items are added to an assignment, they're visible in the Item Library only to the person who creates them.

If you plan to use Adaptive Follow-Up assignments in your course, be aware that My Items aren't counted as qualified publisher items.
