How to Delete an Assignment in a Course Area:

 

You can delete an assignment at any time. If students have submitted work, deleting the assignment also deletes the submissions. You can choose whether or not to keep the associated grades. Alternatively, retain student submissions by making the assignment unavailable rather than deleting it.

1. Navigate to the course area containing the assignment.

 

2. Access an assignment's contextual menu and select Delete.

 

3. Click OK to continue.

 

4. On the Delete Assignment page, choose to:

Preserve scores in the Grade Center for this Assignment, but delete the assignment and all its submissions.

-OR-

Delete this Assignment, the Grade Center item for this Assignment, all grades for this Assignment, and all submissions for this Assignment.

 

5. Click Remove to delete the assignment or Cancel to keep it.

 

Remember that even if you keep the scores in the Grade Center, you will not be able to access the assignment submissions again.
