How Manage Assignees Works
Student names are listed down the left side, and each assigned assessment title is listed across the top. After locating the correct assessment column, use the checkboxes to assign and unassign that assessment to individual students.
Note that the top row provides an option to Select/Deselect All. Please use this option with caution. Deselect All will permanently unassign the assessment from the class and remove the assessment column from the menu.
Unchecking a box will:
unassign the assessment from that student
permanently erase the assessment data for that student
permanently remove the grade from the gradebook for that student
❗ After unchecking a box, you will receive the following confirmation message. Before selecting Yes, ensure that both the assessment title and student name are correct in order to avoid unassigning the wrong assessment by mistake.
Checking an empty box will:
assign the assessment to that student
allow you to add an assessment grade for that student
