After locating a digital assessment from the GO ! application, teachers can add instructions in the Additional Instructions checkbox when creating a digital assignment through the Assign screen.

Teachers can also add instructions from the Instructions for Students textbox when creating a custom assessment using the Custom Content feature screen.

When students begin an assignment that has instructions sent by the teacher, a blue pop-up labeled Instructions for Students will automatically appear.

After reading the instructions, students can select Return to Assignment or click the X icon to start working on their assignment.

If students need to refer back to the instructions at any time while completing their assignment, they will need to select Instructions at the top of the screen to view the Instructions for Students Pop-up again.

If students select Save and Exit then resume working on their assignment later, the Instructions for Students pop-up will automatically reappear to remind students of their assignment instructions.
