Once you've constructed and tested your Activity, you'll want to give access to your students by creating an Assignment for it.

• Go to your Activities page by clicking Activities in the Main Menu.

• Check the checkbox next to the Activity you would like to assign to your students. Then click the Assign Activity icon on the Activity Toolbar:

This will bring you to the Create Assignment page. 

Assignment Step 1 of 3: Choose how you would like the assignment delivered: 

• Classwork.com 

• Google Classroom

• Canvas

• Schoology

Assignment Step 2 of 3 (differs depending on how your assignment is delivered):

• Classwork.com: Select how the student will sign into the assignment (using a google account or using a name or ID).

• Google Classroom: Select Google Classroom Courses and or specific students in the class. 

• Canvas & Schoology: Skips to Step 3 out of 3  

Step 3 of 3: General Settings

• Classwork.com, Canvas, Schoology

  • On this page you are able to choose:
    

    • Enable Open Time: Enabling an open time allows you to set a date and time that the assignment will open for your students. If your students try to access this work before open time, they will receive a warning message that lets them know exactly when it will open.

    • Enable Close Time: Enabling a close time allows you to set the time that the assignment will become unavailable to your students. When that time passes, your students will no longer be able to open the assignment. If they working on it at the time, their work will be auto-saved and they see this message:
      
      
      

    • Enable Due Date: The due date in TeacherMade is not enforced the way Close Time is. Students will not lose access to the work after the due date. Instead, when they do submit their work, it will be marked as late in the Assignment Review. 

    • Enable Time Limit: Enabling a time limit in Classwork.com lets you set a timer for a particular assignment. The timer will begin when a student begins an assignment and will continue to run even if a student leaves the page or saves the work for later. -- The timer is displayed in the top right corner of a student's work. When a student has less than 1 minute, the timer turns red. At the end of the time limit, the work is automatically submitted and students are able to review their work. -- Reopening or resetting a student's submission will also restart the timer for that student's work.

    • Disable submit button: Use this button to prevent accidental submissions by your students that require you to reopen their work. They can keep working in the submission until you mark it as complete. 

    • Students can check answers before submission (This setting determines how many times students may check answers before final submission of an assignment):

      • No

      • Make assignment hidden 

      • Show total score 

      • Show total score on individual items 

      • Show correct answers

      • Show score individual items

  • Google Classroom Settings:

    • Assignment Status: Assign Immediately, Schedule, or Save as a Draft: Assign to your students immediately, schedule a specific date and time to publish or save as a draft and decide when to publish later. 

    • Assignment points to use in Google Classroom: This will not change the available points in TeacherMade. If you change this value in Google Classroom make sure to change it here as well. 

    • Auto-sync scores: You can turn this off if you want to control when scores are pushed to Google Classroom.

    • Block students not in the class: Turning on this feature will block any students who are not in the Google Classroom course you're assigning the work to from entering the assignment.
