Adding an Assignment to Your Course
Activities are interactive tools used to engage students in learning and assess their progress.
Moodle includes forums, assignments, and quizzes, along with collaborative activities such as wikis, glossaries, and databases. Other activities facilitate taking attendance and group self-selection to help manage your course.
Activities appear on your course page as a link proceeded by an icon indicating the activity type. The activity settings let you control conditions for submitting, grading, and assignment to groups. Activities can be graded, added, moved, hidden, and edited.
The ones we are going to go through will be Assignments, Turnitin, Glossary, Quiz, Group Self Selection.
12. Edit an Assignment (Warning)
While it is possible to edit the content or setup options for an existing assignment, proceed with caution if the assignment has already been released to students -- especially if students have already submitted work. Changing some options, such as changing participants when working with groups, may result in student confusion and the loss of work that has already been submitted.
To change the content or options for an assignment you have already created:
1. On your course page, click Turn editing on (green pencil icon, top right).
2. Next to the Assignment to update, click Edit, then select Edit Settings. The assignment's settings page will open.
3. The Updating Assignment page shows you the same options available on the Adding a new Assignment page. Here you may change your assignment options as needed, including changing the due date, grading information, and availability of the assignment.
4. Once you have finished making the necessary changes, click Save and return to course at the bottom of the page.
