# Scheduled & Recurring Assignments

**Scheduled** assignments have a fixed due date. **Recurring** assignments repeat automatically on a schedule — daily, weekly, or custom intervals.

<a id="scheduled-assignments"></a>

## Scheduled Assignments

A scheduled assignment is a one-time task pushed to a class with an open date and a due date.

### Creating a Scheduled Assignment

1.  Go to **Assignments** and click **\+ New Assignment**.
2.  Select **Scheduled** as the type.
3.  Configure:

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Title** | What students see in their assignment list |
| **Content** | The collection, course, section, or component to assign |
| **Open date** | When the assignment becomes available to students |
| **Due date** | The submission deadline |
| **Time limit** | Optional — limits total time per attempt |
| **Show score on completion** | Whether students see their result immediately |

4.  Click **Publish** — the assignment goes live for the class.

### Editing a Scheduled Assignment

You can edit a published assignment’s due date, title, and settings. Content cannot be swapped after publication without creating a new assignment.

> **Caution**
>
> Changing the due date on an active assignment affects all students — including those who have already submitted. Communicate changes to the class before editing due dates.

## Recurring Assignments

A recurring assignment repeats on a set schedule. Each recurrence is a fresh attempt — student progress from the previous round does not carry over.

### Creating a Recurring Assignment

1.  Click **\+ New Assignment** and select **Recurring**.
2.  Configure the same fields as a scheduled assignment, plus:

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Repeat frequency** | Daily, weekly, or custom interval |
| **Repeat days** | For weekly — select which days of the week |
| **End date** | When the recurrence stops (optional) |

3.  Publish — the first instance activates on the open date. Subsequent instances are generated automatically.

### Managing Recurring Assignments

-   The Assignments list shows each active instance separately.
-   You can **pause** a recurring assignment to temporarily stop new instances from generating.
-   You can **end** a recurring assignment to stop future instances without deleting past ones.
-   Editing a recurring assignment updates all **future** instances — past instances are not changed.

> **Tip**
>
> Use recurring assignments for daily Quran review, weekly vocabulary practice, or any content you want students to revisit regularly. Each attempt is recorded separately in Results.

## Assignment Visibility to Students

Students see their assignments in the **Campus** learning portal under the Assignments section. They can see:

-   The assignment title and due date
-   The content they’ve been assigned
-   Their submission status and score (if results are shown)

→ See [Campus — Assignments](https://ilmiya.com/docs/campus/learning/assignments/) for the student-facing view.
