Canvas allows you to customize assignments by allowing assignments to be posted for individual students, a select group of students or class sections.
NOTE – Events can only be assigned by class or by section, but Assignments can be customized down to individual students.
To assign an assignment to an individual or select group of students:
On the Calendar page for your course, click on the day you want the assignment to be due
Click on the Assignment Tab.
Be sure you have selected the appropriate calendar– this cannot be changed once you click more options.
![differentiated assignments canvas differentiated assignments canvas](https://static.helpjuice.com/helpjuice_production/uploads/upload/image/6523/direct/1592195845036-1592195845036.png)
Click the More Options button to further customize the assignment
Customize the assignment by filling in the assignment title, a description of what you want students to do and any links they will need.
Fill out the points, group, submission type and other options as desired
When you get to the “Assign to” section, you can customize to whom it is assigned and the due date.
![differentiated assignments canvas differentiated assignments canvas](https://static.helpjuice.com/helpjuice_production/uploads/upload/image/6523/direct/1592196093275-1592196093275.png)
In the “Assign to” section, click the x after Everyone to clear the field
Then type the first letter of the student you wish to assign this assignment to and select that student.
Continue selecting students to build a list of students who should complete this assignment.
Note – all students selected at this time will have the same due date.
If you want to have different due dates, set the first group and their due date here and see instructions below for multiple due dates.
When you have selected all the students, select the appropriate due date for the group.
When you have finished customizing the assignment, click on Save or Save & Publish
Save will save your work, but the assignment will NOT be visible to students yet. You will need to go back into the assignment and publish when you are ready.
Save& Publish will save your work AND publish the assignment to students. Students will be able to see the assignment and may receive a notification depending on their Canvas settings.
To create a different assignment for another set of students, start the process over again with a new assignment.
Assigning the same assignment with different due dates.
At the bottom of the Assign box, click on +Add to create another set of assignment options.

Select the other set of students as described in steps 5-7 above.
Select the appropriate due date.
Add additional groups and due dates as necessary by clicking +Add.
When you have finished customizing the assignment, click on Save or Save& Publish

Setting up Custom Sections
When setting up an assignment, instructors can indicate whether an assignment should be assigned for everyone in the course, for specific sections, student groups or for individual students.
Only the section(s), student group(s) or student(s) that are specified in the assignment details will be able to view the assignment.

Setting up Custom Sections in Your Course
Sections in a credit course are automatically synchronized with the corresponding class rosters in goSFU. Sometimes, particularly in larger online courses that lack tutorial sections, instructors may still wish to divide a class into smaller groups. This can usually be achieved by creating a Group Set (also known as student groups) on the course's People page.
In the case that students groups are not sufficient, as a last resort, we can add custom sections to the Canvas course. While these custom sections enable more advanced usage, such as differentiated assignments, the sections will not automatically sync. This means the instructor will have to add and remove students who add or drop the course who are in those sections.
One use case would be to assign a differentiated assignment to a subset of students, and to assign TAs to be responsible for subsections of a course that don't have goSFU tutorial/lab sections.
- To take advantage of features only available to course sections and not student groups (e.g. the use cases above)
- Not an officially supported configuration (should be considered last-resort)
- Requires custom setup by CEE/IT support
- Instructors will need to manage enrollments changes (adds/drops) manually
If you prefer to create groups rather than have custom sections created, please review the documentation on c reating student groups
Please contact [email protected] if you need custom sections for your course.

Assigning Different Due Dates and Availability Dates for Students
Did you know that instructors can add different due dates and/or availability dates for students for the same Canvas assignment or quiz? This allows them to give different due dates for each section of a class or to provide extensions for individual students without having to create a new assignment. Differentiated assignment due dates and availability dates should be set before students begin submitting the assignment. Students can only access the assignment or quiz with the due date assigned to them.
Adding Multiple Due Dates and Availability Dates:
After creating a new Assignment or Quiz, scroll down to the Assignment/Quiz details field that says “Assign to.”
![differentiated assignments canvas Assignments1](https://i0.wp.com/infocanvas.upenn.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/assignments1.png?resize=586%2C385)
By default, Canvas Assignments and Quizzes are assigned to “Everyone,” meaning all students enrolled in the course. In the “Assign to” field, add a due date and (optional) availability dates for the first group of students. Then click the “+Add” link beneath the availability dates and select the name of the individual
![differentiated assignments canvas Assignment2](https://i0.wp.com/infocanvas.upenn.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/assignment21.png?resize=651%2C428)
In the “Assign to” field, select the student or section’s name from the dropdown list. For courses with large enrollments, you may need to start typing the name of the student or section in order to see it listed as option. After selecting the name of the student or section, the first “Assign to” field will change to “Everyone Else.”

6 Reliably Easy Ways to Differentiate Any Assignment
![differentiated assignments canvas Differentiate is likely a word you have heard about a million and one times if you are a teacher. We hear we need to differentiate assignments for our students, but no one really takes the time to explain what that looks like in the classroom.](https://teachinginthefastlane.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/6-reliably-easy-ways-to-differentiate-any-assignment.png)
Differentiate is likely a word you have heard about a million and one times if you are a teacher. We hear we need to differentiate assignments for our students, but no one really takes the time to explain what that looks like in the classroom.
Ideally, student learning is unique to each student, but when you have a room with 25 plus kids in it, that’s a lot of differentiation. Even differentiating an assignment for just a few students can seem daunting, but it doesn’t have to be!
Differentiate by Using Cooperative Learning
Differentiate by providing challenge questions.
It is easy to forget when we talk about differentiation that it doesn’t go in just one direction. By providing students with challenge questions we are able to up the ante for our high achievers and quick finishers.
A challenge question can be as easy as asking a student to write their own question about a topic or be more in-depth to include research or possibly a STEM challenge.
Challenge questions can also be given to every level of learner in your class because each student will meet the challenge where they are.
Alternatively, you can have students create their own challenge questions.
Differentiate with a Highlighter
![differentiated assignments canvas Differentiate is likely a word you have heard about a million and one times if you are a teacher. We hear we need to differentiate assignments for our students, but no one really takes the time to explain what that looks like in the classroom.](https://teachinginthefastlane.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/6-easy-ways-to-differentiate-any-assignment-200x300.png)
Differentiate with Sticky Notes
Differentiate by changing the medium.
Pencil and paper just don’t work for some students. I get it. Personally, I HATE writing in pencil. Like, with a passion. When I do have to use a pencil it automatically puts me in a bad mood. I prefer pen, or marker, or just about anything else.
Instead of fighting a student on their writing utensil, let them work in another medium. Is it an assignment which can be completed on the computer? Can they use a whiteboard instead?
These easy for you things can make all the difference!
Differentiate with Student Created Assignments
Giving students the option to create their own assignments opens up a whole new branch of critical thinking.
Giving a student a standard and having them write their own question, do research, or create a project shows a much deeper level of understanding than simply answering a multiple choice question. It is an undeniable use of higher order thinking skills.
This differentiation strategy works to scaffold learning down to our lowest level learners as well as build up more challenge for students ready for it.
Wrapping Up
Differentiation isn’t just a buzzword. It is, what is best for our students. This doesn’t mean it is easy, but when we step back to the basics we can make it happen.

Understanding Group Sets and Groups
Groups and Group Sets help instructors organize students into teams. At least one Group Set must exist before any Groups can be created.
A Brief Analogy
Group Set = A filing cabinet Group = A drawer in the filing cabinet Member = A hanging folder in the drawer
Important: Group activities in Canvas are assigned and associated with the filing cabinet , not the individual drawers (see below). Just as an office can have many filing cabinets, a Canvas course can have many Group Sets. Students can be members of multiple Group Sets but can be a member of only one group per set.
![differentiated assignments canvas Group Set filing cabinet with groups for each drawer](https://www.csustan.edu/sites/default/files/2022-09/canvas_groupfilingcabinet.png)
Create a Group Set
Open the People page [1] . Next, click the "+ Group Set" button [2] . Configure the group set. It is not necessary to create the groups at this point. The groups can be created later if necessary by returning to the People page and clicking the name of the Group Set above the course roster.
![differentiated assignments canvas Steps to create a group set](https://www.csustan.edu/sites/default/files/2022-09/groups_adding_set.png)
How do I add a group set in a course?
How do I manually create groups in a group set?
How do I manually assign students to groups?
Creating Groups and Assigning Students Automatically
Use the Group Structure area to specify how the groups will be structured, and where the students will be placed.
![differentiated assignments canvas Illustrating the Group Structure area of the Group Set page](https://www.csustan.edu/sites/default/files/2022-09/groups_automatic.png)
How do I automatically create groups in a group set?
Enabling Self-Sign Up Groups
Enabled students to join the group of their choosing by ticking the checkbox and setting the maximum number of people per group.
![differentiated assignments canvas Steps to allow student self-selection of groups](https://www.csustan.edu/sites/default/files/2022-09/groups_self_sign.png)
How do I create self sign-up groups in a group set?
Making an Assignment a Group Assignment
You can create a group assignment by using the Group Assignment checkbox. Canvas uses group sets to assign group assignments, and each group within the group set that is assigned to the assignment is required to complete the assignment. All groups will complete the assignment using the same due date.
Note: It is not possible to use individual groups as the basis for differentiated assignments, such as assigning an activity only to a single group or configuring unique due dates for specific groups. Only Group Sets can receive special settings in assignments.
![differentiated assignments canvas Group assignment settings](https://www.csustan.edu/sites/default/files/2022-09/groups_assignment.png)
How do I assign an assignment to a course group?
Making a Discussion a Group Discussion
You can create a single prompt and have groups to discuss it, either as a graded or ungraded activity. Simple associate the discussion with an existing Group Set (or create a new one on-the-fly).
Be sure the Group Set has Groups before you open the discussion activity to students!
How to Create a Group Discussion
On the settings page of the discussion, check the box "This is a Group Discussion" [1] . Then, open the Group Category menu to select the Group Set that will govern the group organization for the activity [2] . Alternatively, click the "New Group Category" button if you would like to create the Set to be used by the discussion.
![differentiated assignments canvas Steps to create a group discussion](https://www.csustan.edu/sites/default/files/2022-09/canvas_groupdiscussion_setup.png)
Important: Students must be placed into a Group in order to properly participate. Students who are not in a group can still post, but the posts are only visible to the instructor and other students not in a group.
How Students Participate in a Group Discussion
To participate, students click the link for the Discussion activity and begin posting. They are automatically participating in their group and do not need to do anything special to "enter" or "join" the discussion. Students cannot view other groups' posts.
How Instructors Monitor a Group Discussion
Instructors can get an overview of activity in the groups by opening the discussion activity link and viewing the information at the top of the page. New posts are indicated in the badges on the far right. To view a group's discussion, click the link for the group on the left.
![differentiated assignments canvas View the list of groups and recent activity at the top of the discussion page.](https://www.csustan.edu/sites/default/files/2022-09/canvas_groupdiscussion_instructorview.png)
Viewing Another Group
After reading one group's discussion, click the "Home" link in the left navigation menu and then click the breadcrumb link for the course at the top of the page to return to the home page. Find the main link for the discussion and re-enter it. Sorry, this is really an area where Canvas could be improved.
Viewing and Monitoring Group Activity
As an instructor, you can view what is happening in groups by viewing each user group from the People page of the course. You can view student activity within the group and view group-created content. You can also access student groups to create group collaborations and add other group-specific content if necessary.
![differentiated assignments canvas Steps to view a group home page](https://www.csustan.edu/sites/default/files/2022-09/groups_viewing_page.png)

The differentiated sections just indicate which assignments contribute to the student grade. But your SIS settings may be different.
