You can use Manage Assignees to add new students to existing assigned lessons or unassign a lesson from the entire class or specific students.

Unassign from an Entire Class

  • Step 1: Navigate to your Lessons module.

  • Step 2: Select Assigned.

  • Step 3: Select the desired class.

  • Step 4: Select the ellipsis to the right of the lesson.

  • Step 5: Select Unassign.

  • Step 6: If you still want to unassign after reading the prompt, select Yes.

❗ Please unassign with caution, as this action cannot be undone.
