A Collection is a tool for organizing assessments within Manage Assessments, similar to a folder. The ability to create and manage Collections is controlled by permissions.
This lesson will review how to create and manage a Collection from the Teacher Level user view.
Admin users may want to review the Default Role Permissions article for more information about granting Collections and other permissions for a user level.
To access Collections, the Collections permission in the Assessments tab must be enabled for a user's given role(s). This can be turned on at the Teacher, School, and/or District level, depending on the user access level selected for the role.
In general:
- Teacher Level users may create and manage Collections for assessments they create, and may view School and District Collections.
- School Level users may create and manage Collections for School assessments, and may view District Collections.
- District Level users may create and manage Collections for District assessments.
