Publishing Classroom Materials in Bulk (at section level)

As an instructor, you can choose to publish multiple materials (except offline tests) at once at the section level. All the eligible materials, inside a section, will be published in all the classrooms they are shared with. Let's see how you can publish classroom materials in bulk at section level.

Eligibility:

The list of materials inside a section will be eligible for publishing as per the following points:

  • In case of an assignment, the description of an assignment cannot be empty, else it will not be eligible for publishing using the Publish All button.
  • In case of an online quiz, at least one question needs to be present inside the quiz for it to be eligible for publishing using the Publish All button.
  • Offline tests do not have any publishing functionality and hence they are excluded from the materials being bulk published at a section level

In case one or more ineligible materials are present, the system will show you their names and the reason why they cannot be published.
