If the assignment contains multiple folders, state whether the assignment order from above will apply to the folders. 

All folders with Decision Points in this assignment will remain in Sequential or Auto-Launch mode.

Suppress Duplicate Activities PH-_Assignment_Archive-_Edit__Overview-_suppress_duplicate_activities.png By selecting 'Yes', students will not receive the same activity if s/he has already completed it as part of this assignment. If the student completes an activity in one assignment group, but then later has the same activity included in another assignment, s/he will have to do it again.
Show Resources PH-_Assignment_Archive-_Edit__Overview-_show_resources.png These are additional items to an activity. An example is games associated with the concept of the activity. 
Draft Mode PH-_Assignment_Archive-_Edit__Overview-_draft_mode.png This is grayed out and changes cannot be made.

Edit Tasks PH-_Assignment_Archive-_Edit__Overview-_Edit_tasks.png This is actually only available for the assignment creator, a teacher account, and it takes them back into the assignment build view to modify, add, or delete content. The teacher does have to select the impact either “all students” or “select students”. If they choose all students, the system will automatically apply the changes to all and the assignment will save with the same name. If the teacher chooses “select students”, s/he has to rename the edited version and choose the select student from the list as the last step.
