Note:

Assessment cards are differentiated with a beige background.
Students will not be able to access embedded links or apps in the Assignment unless they have been whitelisted for use in the Assessment's network.
Students will not be able to view Assessments on their Assignments tab on the homepage or the Assignments list. You will have to provide them with the Student Attempt URL for them to gain access to it by clicking the Overflow (3-dot icon) when inside an Assignment/Assessment.

Set Assignments as Assessments

Did You Know:

If you do not wish to create an Assessment (which will require the whitelisting of embedded links or apps), you may wish to set a Access Code (formerly known as Passcode) to an Assignment. Students will require the Access Code before they can attempt the Assignment.
