Send assessments in Classwork
Send an assessment to test understanding of a concept, topic or lesson. Your students can view assessments across all their classes to keep track of their tests, and any feedback or scoring you provide.
You can send an assessment to your entire class or to one or more students based on their specific needs. Classwork does not support sending an assessment to multiple classes. To assign the same document to more than one class, copy the assessment, then send the new assessment to another class.
If you have multiple teachers in your class, assessments you send or schedule are visible and editable by all teachers. Draft assessments are only visible to you.
Note: You need an Internet connection to send an assessment. If your Internet connection is interrupted, you can save your assessment as a draft to send at a later time.
