A new, empty activity is created ready to be filled out. First, choose the date and time at which the activity will be available to students, and the date and time when the activity falls due. The default title for the activity contains the selected start and due dates, but this can be changed. There is also the option for the teacher to write a note containing a reminder or additional information for the students.

Overdue homework activities will continue to be displayed to students. This way the student still has the opportunity to complete the activity, albeit late.

Note: Setting or changing the activity owner is only available to full administrators.

To select the Classes and Groups and/or Students to receive the activity, click ‘+ Add recipients’. Click ‘+’ or ‘-’ to include or exclude Classes and Groups and/or Students from the activity.

To select the lessons, click ‘+ Add lessons’. In the Lessons box you will see the lessons that have been added to the activity. You can continue adding lessons by clicking the relevant check boxes until all required lessons have been added (max 20). Use the filters to display only lessons from particular courses, streams or topics. Or start typing the name of a lesson in the keyword search to see the matches.

You can change the order of the lessons if required, using the ‘Move Up’ and ‘Move Down’ buttons. You can specify online questions or worksheet where both exist. If students are required to complete the lessons in the given order, check the box in the upper left hand corner.

Finally, click ‘Save Activity’. A confirmation notice will appear if the activity was added successfully.
