Assignments

Canvas has a feature where you can add and create assignments.  The assignments can have several different qualities.  You may:

  • Set dates for them to open and close automatically.
  • Add them a month in advance and have them unlock on a desired date.
  • Link them to other assignments in Canvas, websites, and even quizzes also on Canvas.
  • Add files and embedded images within your assignment.

Before creating an assignment, you have to create an assignment group if you want to weight grades. In order to do both of these, see the pages below:
