How Do I Reassign an Assignment in Google Classroom?

Published in Google Classroom 2 mins read

You can't directly reassign an existing assignment in Google Classroom. However, you can achieve a similar outcome by creating a new assignment using the original assignment as a template. Here's how:

  1. Open the original assignment: Navigate to the assignment you want to reassign in your Google Classroom.
  2. Select "Create a copy": Look for the option to create a copy of the assignment. It might be labeled as "Create a copy" or "Duplicate."
  3. Edit the copied assignment: Once you've created a copy, you can edit the new assignment's details, including the title, due date, instructions, and grading criteria.
  4. Assign the new assignment: After making necessary changes, you can assign the new assignment to your students.

Example:

Let's say you have an assignment called "Chapter 1 Quiz" that you want to reassign for the next chapter. Instead of re-using the same assignment, you would create a copy, rename it to "Chapter 2 Quiz," and update the quiz content to reflect Chapter 2 materials.

Remember:

  • Creating a copy allows you to keep the original assignment for reference and avoid accidentally modifying it.
  • You can also use this method to reuse assignments across different classes or for different grade levels.
