The Link Assignments column allows users to review, add, or remove assignments linked to the outcome of the selected educational experience. |
Refreshing LMS Assignments
The platform refreshes the LMS assignments automatically in course sections when there is at least one assignment linked in the section. When there is one or more linked assignments, the Update Assessment Results batch process will automatically refresh LMS assignments twice a day, at 6 AM and 8 PM. Learn more about batch processes.
If there are no linked assignments in the section, a manual refresh of the course section LMS assignments can be performed via the Assignment Linking Manager page. When an outcome is selected, a refresh occurs for LMS assignments in the course section associated with the chosen outcome.
