Assignments - Excerpt from the book
Assignments will be the heart of your classes. Similar to announcements you can create an assignment that students must complete in order to pass the class. The assignment will have a title, instructions, due date and a topic. You also have the ability to add files, Google Drive access, YouTube videos and direct links to other sites. Once you have completed creating your assignment you can instantly assign the work, save as draft and come back later or schedule the assignment for a later date and time. If this is going to be an open class where people can join throughout the year you can remove the due date and time from the assignment allowing students to take the assignment at their own time.
