Generally, when you schedule assignments for multisection courses, you first schedule
the assignments you want to a single section and then add new sections to your course.
Each new
section copies the original section.
-
Schedule assignments to one section of the course.
Usually, you will want to schedule assignments based on the class schedule. This makes
it
easier to copy your assignment schedule to different sections with different class
schedules.
Best Practice You might want to give this
section a distinctive name (like template
) that will clearly indicate
to you which section should be used as the basis for creating other
sections.
-
Add new sections to the course.
Each new section copies the assignment schedule from the section you are working in
when you
add sections.
-
If needed, change the assignment dates for the sections you copied the assignment
schedule
to.
You might need to make schedule adjustments for different patterns of class meetings,
for
example, after copying a section that meets on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday to a
section that
meets on Tuesday and Thursday.
-
If needed, you can copy the assignment schedule from one section into another section.
Assignments that were previously scheduled to the section you are copying to will
be
updated. Assignments that were not previously scheduled to the section will be added.
Tip After making a schedule adjustment to one section,
you can copy that section to other sections that need the same change applied.
-
If needed, you can copy a single scheduled assignment to other sections of the
course.
This leaves the schedule for all other assignments unchanged.
-
If needed, you can unschedule an assignment from all sections of the course.
You might need to do this if an error is discovered in an assignment.
