You can create labels to use for filtering your Current Assignments list. Labels act like folders to organize the assignments you have access to.

Manage Labels

1. On the Assignments list, select the checkbox for an assignment in the list.

2. Select Manage Labels in the toolbar.

Select a label to add to the selected assignment or use the drop down menu to create a new label then click Done.

Filter by Assignment Label

Choose from the Labels drop-down menu under Filters.

The list of assignments is filtered by the selected label.

Other Assignment Filters

The View Assignments page can get cluttered. Use the assignment categories and filters to find what you need faster. You can use the assignment categories of Student Portal, Archive and Trash to find assignments quickly. Current Assignments is the default view for your assignment list. If you see old or not frequently used assignments in your current list view, try archiving (preserves old data) or deleting (removes the assignment and data from your view). You can use the assignment Filters of Owner and Term Data Shown to change which assignments appear in the list and what data is displayed for the "Turned In" or "Mean" columns.

Additional Ideas for Organizing Assignments

• Follow a naming convention to make assignments easier to share and find. Example of naming conventions include Year-Term-Course-Assignment Type-Topic. Example - "22-23 Biology 10 Midterm Nutrition".
• Try archiving or deleting assignments you no longer need for the current academic year.
