Classes and assignments can be copied so that you can use them again, saving you a lot of time! The process of copying is the same on both the iPad and the web.

How to Copy Classes

  1. Tap on the class you’d like to copy.

  2. Tap on the Settings menu "..."

  3. Tap Settings.

  4. Tap Copy Class.

  5. Change the class name, if desired, and take note of the new class code. You can regenerate the code at any time by clicking the rounded arrow.

  6. Choose to Hide or Not Hide assignments from students.

  7. Tap on Copy Class.

-When you copy a class, all assignments and their shared folders are duplicated, but the due dates are not.

-A new class code will be generated so that new students can join the new, copied class.

-You can lock all copied assignments and unlock them when you're ready for students to begin. Assignments locked this way remain hidden from students until you choose to unlock them.

Please be patient; internet speed and the number of files you’re copying might be affecting how long the process takes.
