If your institution has access to different content versions, you cannot schedule an assignment using one content version to a section using a different content version.
When instructors set dates in the calendar for all Assignment Types or set times and passwords for all exams and projects, the default days and times that display are for the local time zone on their computers. However, assignments are set for the institution time zone. As a result, instructors could select a day and/or time in the past. Be aware of this situation when scheduling assignments.
If a due date passes without a student submission, a zero displays in the Gradebook, no report generates and the Reset Score page displays incomplete. Click Submit Results to have students receive scoring on questions they completed before the due date.
If an assignment is a timed assignment, it submits automatically at the end of the time limit.

Instructors can create SAM assignments (exam, training, projects) either manually or with Express Creation.

The following section shows you how to use Express Creation to schedule exams, training or projects.

Computer Concept Tasks

In training assignments, tasks have a training video and questions. In exam assignments, tasks have questions only.
