Create assignments by copying sample assignments

Updated 26 Jan 2024

In most courses, you can import pre-built assignments using the Copy and Assign Sample Assignments wizard. Sample homework is available to students only if you copy and assign it. Sample tests and quizzes are available to your students unless you hide them. Students' results on sample tests and quizzes update their Study Plans, but do not affect their score in your course.

  1. Open the Copy and Assign Sample Assignments wizard:
  2. On step 1, the Start tab, choose whether to automatically distribute due dates between selected dates. You can edit assignment start and due dates after they are set.
  3. On step 2, the Select Assignments tab, select the assignments.

    Select Copy in the table header to select all assignments. Use the filters above the list to view assignments by category and chapter.

  4. On step 3, the Assign Due Dates tab, optionally specify how automatic due dates are assigned.
  5. On step 4, the Confirmation tab:
    • Select Assign in the table header to assign all the assignments or select the checkbox to assign individual assignments.
    • Optionally change assignment names in the New Assignment Name column.
    • Optionally change the start or due dates for assignments.
  1. In the classic Assignment Manager, select an assignment category from the Show All menu.

    The sample assignments in that category display at the bottom of the page.

  2. Select a chapter to see its assignments in your selected category.
  3. Select Actions > Copy for an assignment.

    You also can preview or list questions.
