  3. Update the due date and other assignment settings using the gear icon.

  4. When students access the assignment, they will be prompted to “View instructions.” Blank attempts are no longer created when students view assignment instructions. The system only creates an attempt when students add content to the file drop zone / content editor. Note: Group or timed and proctored assignments continue to create attempts when students view the instructions.
