Delete an assignment

When you delete an assignment, the MyLab moves it to the Deleted Assignments list on the All tab of the Assignments page. Once you delete an assignment, you can view its details but you cannot open, edit, or undelete the assignment.

You cannot delete an assignment that a student has started work on.

Tip: An alternative is to hide an assignment by deactivating it. Students cannot see or access a deactivated assignment, but you can still view it and, optionally, reactivate it.

To delete an assignment:

1. Do one of the following:
   • If the assignment's title is displayed under Manage Assignments on the Home page, click the title and continue with step 4 in this procedure.
   • Click View Current Assignments under Manage Assignments on the Home page.
2. Expand the Current Assignments or Past Assignments list, depending on the state of the assignment you want to delete.
3. Click the Title of the assignment you want to delete.

   The assignment details are displayed.

4. Click the Delete button in the details window.
5. Click OK to confirm the deletion.

   The assignment is moved to the Deleted Assignments list.
