IN THIS ARTICLE
By default, assignments are not shared to anyone and are only accessible to the assignment author. This article describes the options an assignment author has in sharing the assignment to other staff (according to their school associations).
- Assignment sharing allows an assignment author to grant varying levels of access to an assignment for the purpose of delivering the assignment, viewing student performance data for the assignment, or both.
- To learn more about how sharing options impact printing forms, setting up online access, and viewing data, try our Quick Start Guide for Sharing or read on below.
Assignment Sharing Options
Within Gradient, a Teacher is defined as a staff member with assigned classes/sections. As a result, the assignment-sharing options listed below will work for most* Teachers (and Co-Teachers) who want to access an assignment for the purpose of scanning, setting up online access, and/or viewing student performance data for the classes rostered to them.
*If a staff member does not have classes or students rostered to them in Gradient (principals, coaches, special education teachers), skip down to the last section of this article for ideas about how to provide these staff members access to deliver assignments or view reports.
From within an assignment, navigate to the top left drop-down menu next to the assignment name, choose Share Assignment | |
Using the Share with field, enter the name of the staff member (at your associated schools) or the group (ask your Gradient Leader for group names), that you want to share with. | |
Choose the option that works best for your team (Choose "i" to get more information about the options available)
NOTE: Joint Owner access is required for staff that need the ability to print forms, scan, or assign online access for a class or group of classes that are not rostered to them (see Class Groups below). |
Sharing with a PLC
Gradient Leaders can create Teacher Groups to save teachers the time of entering all the individual names of their team members. Teacher Groups can also allow teachers across schools to share with one another without needing to be granted an association to a new school.
- For more information about Class Groups, view the article for Assignment Sharing & Groups or watch the video Three Methods for Assignment Sharing.
Sharing with a Co-Teacher
Co-Teachers need assignments shared to them just like all teachers. Follow the Assignment Sharing Options above. If the co-teacher does not appear when you are searching for staff, review the linked co-teacher article for how co-teachers can be added to Gradient via Clever, ClassLink, or to a manually created class within Gradient.
Staff NOT added as Co-Teacher: Staff that have not been synced as co-teachers or manually added to classes as co-teachers within Gradient, will need to access assignments via Class Groups as described below.
- Using Class Groups should be fairly rare or unnecessary as the option to add co-teachers to a class within Gradient manually or via a sync was introduced in Winter 2022.
- For more information about Class Groups, view the article for Sharing Assignments to Class Groups or watch the video Three Methods for Assignment Sharing.
