Use toolbars

Toolbars appear above lists and provide access to common features in your course. There is also a toolbar for study materials included in a readiness check.

Available options

When using a toolbar feature, you can either apply it to a single asset you select, to multiple assets you selected, or all of the assets in the list when you click Select all.

The following table is an alphabetical list of all of the possible toolbar features. Not all choices are available from each toolbar.

Click	To	Available from the following toolbars
Add Course Materials	Create your own course materials and resources. Note: You must enable the Add Course Materials feature for teaching assistants.	Course Materials Library My Course
Assign/Unassign	Assign or unassign an asset to students. When an asset is assigned, a checkmark appears in the Assigned column. Assigning an asset changes the asset into an assignment that must be completed by all students. Only assigned assets are calculated in the gradebook's grade-to-date (course or folder average) column. If you unassign an asset after students submit work, student grades are unchanged. If you delete an asset after students submit work, the column for that assignment is removed from the gradebook. Additionally, gradebook calculations and reports do not include scores from that asset. Note: Assign/Unassign is available only if enabled in your course. If available, you can enable this feature for teaching assistants.	My Course
Copy	Copy the selected asset to the clipboard. The assets appear dimmed.	Course Materials Library My Course
Clipboard items	Display the number of copied or cut assets. The number reflects the number of checkboxes you select. For example, if you select the checkbox for a folder that contains three assets, it counts as one asset. However, when you paste the folder, it creates a copy of the folder and all the assets in it.	Course Materials Library My Course
Cut	Move the selected asset to the clipboard. The assets appear dimmed.	Course Materials Library My Course Study Material
Delete	Permanently remove assets from the Course Materials Library. After you delete them, you cannot view or use them again.	Course Materials Library
Paste	Paste the asset from the clipboard to the desired location. You must first cut or copy assets to make this option active. Choose a location from the paste menu: Paste At Top: Paste the asset before the first asset in the list. Paste Before Selected: Paste the asset before the selected assets in the list. You must select one or more assets in the list to enable this option. Paste After Selected: Paste the asset after the selected assets in the list. You must select one or more assets in the list to enable this option. Paste At Bottom: Paste the asset after the last asset in the list.	Course Materials Library My Course Study Material

Remove Due Date	Remove the due date for an assigned asset. After you click this option, the due dates are removed and the asset remains assigned without a due date.

Study Material Only: View only study materials associated with the learning objectives. You cannot reorder the study materials but can sort the materials by Name and Type.	Study Material
Show/Hide	Change whether assets are shown (visible) to students or hidden (not visible). The current status appears below the asset. However, on the Course Materials > Manage Course Materials page, hidden assets appear in italicized font and the status does not appear. To change the status, select the asset's checkbox and then click Show/Hide. Note: If you hide a folder, any assigned materials within folder are still available to students on their Course Calendar page.	My Course
