Create a new assignment

Admins, teachers and privileged employees can create new assignments.

Steps

1. Go to Menu → Academics → Assignment to open the All assignments page.

2. At the top left, click Create new assignment.

   

3. In the Course field, select the course. The Batch and Subject fields then appear.

4. Select the Batch and Subject. The students taking the subject are listed on the right.

5. If you select Enable comments, any student or teacher can add comments. Comments are public.

6. If you turn on Enable submission, an Online/Offline drop-down appears. If it is turned off, students cannot submit the assignment — they can only view its content.

7. Choose the Assignment type:

   • Online — students submit the assignment in myschool.
   • Offline — students cannot submit in myschool; instead the teacher marks the assignment as submitted.

8. In the Title field, enter the assignment name.

9. If you select Enable due date, set the due date and choose whether late submissions are allowed. If disabled, no due date is shown on the assignment.

10. Marks/Grade: assignments can be graded with marks or grades (the grading profile comes from Gradebook).

11. Fill in any additional fields defined in the assignment settings.

12. Add the Content. You can attach files — up to 5 MB each and 10 MB in total.

13. Click Draft to save it for later, or Publish. When the assignment is published, students are notified.
