Try Assignments on CodeHS

With the CodeHS platform, the goal is to make it a seamless experience for computer science teachers managing their classes. That means you can go to one place for students to write their programs, to manage submissions, grade projects, see the data, organize your lessons, and more.

With the addition of CodeHS Assignments, now it’s even easier to get the exact course you want, with tools you can’t find anywhere else.

Before, you’d need to jump around to various settings, CodeHS courses, playlists, and other custom projects, to get your exact materials. Before, there wasn’t a really easy way to just assign a project, though there were lots of workarounds.

Assignments let you easily get the exact course you want.

You can:

• Easily create, modify, and remove assignments
• Differentiate assignments at a per student level
• Use a much more powerful gradebook
• Grade with partial or extra credit
• Assign any problem, playlist, course, or module

You get the full flexibility to make it as custom as you want. If you like your workflow as is, that still works great. You can pick a CodeHS course, it creates all of your assignments, and presto — you are set.

But what if you want to choose some students to get a different assignment? Or have things assigned that don’t show in the gradebook? Or add in a new assignment to serve as a participation grade? Award partial credit or extra credit? Or add your own instructions to an assignment? Or anything else?

Want to assign a new module from a different course? Pull in a problem from another teacher from the problem bank? Assign a playlist? You can do all of that.

Your settings will carry over between sections if they are using the same course, which also makes it easier to manage.

Assignments on CodeHS work exactly how you use Assignments in your class.
