Delete an Assignment

  1. Enter the Assignment area by clicking on Assignment in the left menu bar.

  3. Click the button to delete the activity or the Cancel button to exit without deleting the activity.
  4. Note: if you click on the Update button at the bottom of the assignment list window without checking a box, you'll just get a notice that there's nothing to update -- it doesn't hurt anything. I've sometimes forgotten what Update means and that reminds me.
