○ The class list includes all the students rostered in the class to which the assignment was originally created.
○ If all the students originally selected for the assignment have completed it, then additional students cannot be selected.
○ If a student has not completed the assignment (indicated by a status of "Not Started" or "In Progress"), that student can be removed from the assignment; however, once a student completes the assignment (indicated by a status of “Ready to Grade,” “Grading in Progress,” or “Completed”), that student cannot be removed from the assignment.
○ You cannot remove all students from the assignment. If you want to remove all students, return to the Assignment Details page and select Delete. (See Delete Assignments for details.)
6. Click Update. The assignment edits are saved.
Note: At this time, edits to the assignment are not reflected on the Reports pages; for now, reports will continue to display the assignment's original name and dates. However, edits made to assignments will be displayed on reports in an upcoming release.
