Using the Assignment Created Page

The Assignment Created page is the last page that appears when the assignment creation process is complete. You can also access this page later as the Assignment Summary page by clicking an assignment's name on the Assignments page list. The Assignment Summary/Assignment Created pages provide you with several links for modifying and managing your assignment. The choices you see on this page depend on the assignment type you created.
