CodeHS gives you access to all the curriculum in the Course Catalog as well as additional user-created content. You can add entire courses, specific modules, single assignments, projects, and playlists to any existing Course.

Once you have created a Course in CodeHS, you can add additional content from the Create App, the Course Catalog, the Project Catalog, the Problem and Playlist Banks, or you can copy content from another one of your courses.

Assigning Content from the Course Catalog

You can add an entire CodeHS Course to an existing Section, or you can pick and choose specific content such as Supplemental Material or other individual units from any course.

From the Assignments App, click Add > CodeHS Course:

The Assign Button

Whenever you're logged into your account and see the blue Assign button, this means that you can add this content to your Course or Section. You'll be prompted to configure settings for the material when you assign it. Pro settings will only be available to teachers who have a Pro License.
