Dear Instructor,

It's finally here! The next time you log into WebAssign you will see our latest feature release in action, designed to revolutionize the way you create courses and schedule assignments. Featuring one-step course creation, the ability to copy courses and assignments across terms, a streamlined way to manage multisection courses, and an innovative new way to schedule assignments, this release is focused on saving you time.

Training and Support

We know that you’ll find the new interface intuitive and easy-to-use, but we have created a variety of tools available to guide you through the new process to help get you quickly acclimated and up and running fast. 

Check out our new Video Tutorials to see a step-by-step demonstration of how to set up a course or copy your existing assignments to multiple sections.  Want more interactive help?  Our live WebAssign 101 Training Workshops have been redesigned to include all of these updates and more. And for those experienced customers, we offer you the option to just take a Crash Course focused on these new features.  Additionally, our Instructor Support help documents are completely up-to-date and as always, our Customer Support team is ready to assist you during our regularly scheduled hours.

Check out some of the details of these new features below and we invite you to test them out in your own course today. We are sure you’ll agree that this is not just a whole new WebAssign, it’s a better WebAssign.

A Whole New Way to Create Courses

We streamlined the way you create your courses in WebAssign with a leaner, faster page that focuses only on the options that are most important to you. Selecting a textbook is effortless with the new textbook search box and discipline-specific drop down menu.

A Whole New Way to Schedule Assignments

We also upgraded the way you schedule your assignments.  You can now drag your assignments from a searchable list and drop them onto the week for which they should be scheduled. You can reschedule or unschedule assignments just as easily, by dragging them to a different week or back to the assignment list.

A Whole New Way to Copy Your Courses

Copy Course

You can now copy one of your previous course sections to a new term in seconds.  Using our new Course Copy functionality, you can instantly copy all of your assignments to a new course in a new term, and all of your settings will be rescheduled to match your new course schedule, including GradeBook settings, assignment restrictions and conditions, and all other assignment behaviors.

A Whole New Way to Manage Multisection Courses

In addition to being able to copy a previous section into a new course, you can duplicate sections within a course.  Large course management in WebAssign has never been easier!
