The Quick Assignment Settings page enables teachers to efficiently assign tests and quizzes with flexible options for both basic (Easy Assign) and advanced (Pro Assign) configurations. This feature provides a streamlined process to help educators adjust settings as needed while maintaining default configurations where desired.
Easy and Pro Assign
- To assign a test, go to the left menu and select Test Library. Then, hover over the test card you want to assign and click Assign to open the Assignment Settings page.
- On the Assignment Settings page, you’ll find options to switch between Easy Assign and Pro Assign modes.
Easy Assign Mode: Offers a minimal set of settings for quick assignment, with most settings set to default. Teachers can make any necessary adjustments and then click Assign. A checkbox option allows you to remember your preference to use Easy Assign for future assignments.
Pro Assign Mode: Expands the settings options, allowing teachers to access detailed configuration options. Switch to Pro Mode if you want broader control over each setting before assigning the test.
