Copy assignments

Teachers can copy assignments from their Assignment Center or Assignments tab in their class section. Copying an assignment creates a new, separate instance of the assignment in the same class section. To create a new instance of an assignment in a different class section, or to copy an assignment from a previous school year, use Import assignments.

Note: Teachers can also use the Copy feature to convert assessments created with the old builder to the new assessment experience. See Convert Assessments for more information.

To make a copy of an existing assignment, teachers will need to do the following:

  1. Go to the Assignment Center or Assignments tab in their course.

  2. Select the context menu next to the assignment.

  3. Select Make a copy.

The Assignment Center or Assignments tab will refresh and there will be a new assignment called Copy of [assignment]. Teachers can then edit this assignment to rename it or make updates to it.

Note: The Publish status for the new copy of the assignment will default to No. If you do not see the new copy of the assignment, check your filters to ensure you're not excluding the copy from your assignment view. Additionally, teachers will need to publish the assignment copy before students can see it.
