{info}{*}To Import Homework:*
# Click the down arrow to open the *HOMEWORK* drop-down list. The drop-down list is comprised of all the homework titles currently available from the course Homework section for the course. Make a selection from this list.
# The *TITLE, SHORT NAME,* and *DUE DATE* fields are populated with the original Homework properties *(TITLE, SHORT NAME, and DUE DATE)*. Edit the *TITLE*, *SHORT NAME*, and *DUE DATE* fields to update the information or leave the defaults. Changes made to these fields do not change the original homework's properties.
# Enter the *MAXIMUM POINTS* the imported Homework will carry.
# Optional. If you are weighting the homework, enter the weight percentage in the *WEIGHT %* field. A zero entered in this field will cause the homework grade to be ignored when the final grade is calculated.
# Click *ADD* to import the data into a new *SUMMARY/GRADING TABLE* form. The title of the imported homework is shown in the *SUMMARY* section. The Student roster is shown with blank fields for grading the imported homework.
# If you have multiple Homework assignments to import, click the *SAVE & ADD MORE* button. This will clear the *IMPORT/ADD* form so you can import additional homework without leaving the form.
