Publishing and unpublishing in eKadence is the main method for teachers to allow students to view activities. There are three ways to publish or unpublish an activity; this can be done through Activity Settings, Modules, or the Activity Type List.
How to publish an activity from Settings
- Teachers can go to the activity that they wish to publish under the Assignments section and select the Settings tab.
- From there, they can make any changes needed in the settings; a publish date must be set in order for the students to view the assignment.
- Click Save after the publish dates and settings have been updated.
How to publish an activity from Modules
- Teachers can go to the activity that they wish to publish under the Modules section.
- Click on Publish next to the name of the activity.
- Here, teachers can change the time frame that students will be able to view the activity. If the assignment is ready to publish, click Publish Now. This will set the start date to the current time. If you want to schedule it for a later time, change the start and/or end dates then click Save.
If you publish an activity in an unpublished module, it will not appear to the students.
How to publish an activity from the Activity Type List
- Go to the activity that you wish to publish under the Assignments section.
- Click on Publish next to the name of the activity.
- Similar to publishing from Modules, a pop-up will appear, containing the scheduling customization window for the activity. If the activity is ready for publishing, click Publish Now.
