Assign an Assignment

Assign an Assignment

For directions on assigning Common Assessments, click here. 

1. From the navigation bar on the left of your screen, select Assignments, My Assignments. 



2. Find the Assignment you would like to send to your students.


3. To the right of the assignment name, under the "Actions" Column, select the More Actions button (three dots), and choose Assign from the drop down.



4.  The Assignment Scheduler will pop up, and you can Assign by Class, Assign to Students, Assign to Groups, or find the Start Code.  The link for the assessment is found under the Start Code tab.


  1. Note: If the class you are assigning to is a Google Classroom class, the Assign to Google Classroom button will illuminate once the class is selected. Click the Assign to Google Classroom button and the link to the assignment will automatically populate in your Google Classroom stream.
5a. After assigning to a class, student, or group, by checking the box next to their name, you can enter a start and due date, and then click Assign.


5b. If you are using a Start Code, you can have students go to www.edcite.com/start and enter the code. You can also click on "Want a link?" to copy and send the link directly to students. 


Note: If you choose to use Quicklinks, there are three important factors to consider:

  1. Students can complete the assignment without needing an account using the link.

  2. Students can use their name when accessing the assignment.

  3. Students will see a report on completion of the assignment, but the report will not be associated with an Edcite account.
