Differentiating Assignments
Task: Create differentiated due dates in an assignment that you have created.
Differentiated Assignments is a Canvas feature that lets you create Assignments, Graded Discussions, and Quizzes for individual students, sections, or all students in your courses. Creating assignments for various users creates varied due dates, and availability date functionality is still available for each assignment.
When using differentiated assignments with the Gradebook, the assignment appears as a column for all students, but grade cells are grayed out for students who have not been included in the assignment. Grades cannot be assigned for students who have not been included in the assignment, and assignments that are assigned to them, either individually or as part of a course or section, are not factored into overall grades.
On the student grades page, students can only view assignments that have been assigned to them.
