These assignments have either been created by our team or curated by our team. The new _Curated Assignments_ feature allows users who can send assignments to send these pre-created, curated assignments to their classes. These assignments can be found by clicking on the Curated Assignments button on the Assignment Sneding page ![](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/a7fcef1ebe95b000/image_lo34cz.png) We will add to this list of assignments over time.
