How do I create an assignment?

The version of Duolingo for Schools described in this article will no longer be available after December 31, 2022. See what's new.

Looking to assign work to your students? Begin by navigating to the teacher dashboard at schools.duolingo.com. Choose the class that you’d like to create an assignment for on the left side of the screen.

From this page, you can create an assignment using the drop-down selections under "Browse and assign content."

You can choose the Unit you'd like your students to work on, as well as whether you'd like the assignment to be a Skill or a Story. You can choose the particular Skill or Story by clicking on it. If you'd like to create an XP assignment, you can select the button on the right. 

Finally, click “Assign.” The remaining screens will let you select the start and due dates for your assignment (to include times!), as well as which classes you’d like to have complete it. Select "Assign" for the final time to push the assignment to your students’ accounts so they can get learning!
