Sometimes it's helpful to share a direct link to an assignment with your students. When you need to find a link that will take students directly to a specific assignment, there are several places you can look.

In the Assignments App

Navigate to the Assignments app by clicking on Assignments under the Assignments category in the lefthand navigation menu:

Then, find the assignment you'd like to share. You can switch which course you're viewing assignments for through the dropdown menu at the top of the app:

Once you find your assignment, click the three dots next to it and choose Copy Link to copy a link to your clipboard.

You can also copy a direct link to an entire lesson, rather than just specific assignments. Click the three dots and choose Copy Link to copy a link to your clipboard.

On the Edit Assignment Page

On your Assignments page, click Edit for any assignment. Copy the link at the top of the page to share with your students.

To copy a link to a CodeHS Practice problem, hover over the problem, click the three dots, and choose Copy Link to copy a link to your clipboard.
