How do I change a section's course or unit assignment?
You can change which course or unit a section of students is assigned to in three different places:
From your homepage (studio.code.org/home) - recommended if you're updating many sections to *different* courses or units
From the course or unit you want to assign that section to - recommended if you're updating many sections to the *same* course or unit
From the teacher dashboard when you're looking at a single section
Assigning a section to a course or unit and keeping that assignment up-to-date as the class progresses is helpful for two reasons:
It ensures that your students will start in the right place when they sign in: Students in a section will always start in the course or unit they were assigned to when they sign in. Only one course can be assigned to a section at a time, but students can continue to access any other course at any time by visiting their homepage (studio.code.org/home) once they sign in.
It makes it easier for you to view a section's most recent progress in the Teacher Dashboard: When you view progress for a section in the Teacher Dashboard, each section will default to the course or unit they are currently assigned to. You can always change the course you're viewing progress for at any time using the "Course or Unit" dropdown list.
Option 1 - Updating section assignment from your homepage
This option is recommended if you need to update many sections to *different* courses or units at the same time.
From your list of sections on the teacher homepage, click the down-facing arrow on the far right of each section.
This will take you to a new page where you can edit the settings and change the assigned course or unit for the class section. Make sure you take note of which version you are assigning and remember to click the purple "Save" button at the bottom of the page when you're finished making changes.
Option 2 - From the course or unit you want to assign to your section
This option is recommended if you need to update many sections to *the same* course or unit at the same time.
Go to the course or unit overview page for the materials you want to assign
CS Fundamentals - from this page, go to "view course" for the Course you want to teach
Click the purple "Assign to sections" button to change assignments for the course or unit you're viewing.
Use the pop-up window to change which class sections the course or unit is assigned to. Clicking the box next to each class section's name will assign or unassign the course or unit for that class section. A blue checkmark indicates the course or unit is currently assigned to that class section.
When you're finished making changes, click the purple "Confirm section assignments" button to save and confirm the changes.
Option 3 - When you're viewing content for a class section
This option is recommended if you happen to be viewing content (i.e. progress, lesson materials, etc.) for a class section already, and you want to update the course or unit assigned to the class section.
Click the Settings option in the sidebar navigation on the left side of your screen.
This will take you to a new page where you can edit the settings and change the assigned course or unit for the class section. Make sure you take note of which version you are assigning and remember to click the purple "Save" button at the bottom of the page when you're finished making changes.
