Add Links in Sakai to WebAssign Activities and Resources

After setting up your WebAssign course, create links from Sakai® to activities or other content in WebAssign.

Note Category scores and overall course scores can not be synced to Sakai.

Before adding links to WebAssign activities, make sure your WebAssign course is set up the way you want it.

  • Add and organize the assigned activities and course materials for your WebAssign course.
  • Configure assignment settings such as grading, attempts, feedback, time limits, due dates, point values, and grade categories.
Best Practice Use consistent assignment settings and a consistent schedule for due dates and times.
