Google Classroom allows educators to schedule posts in advance. Perhaps you don’t want students to start an assignment just yet, but it is ready to go. Or maybe you were working ahead and have all of the assignments for the week ready to post, but don’t want to overwhelm students with an abundance of work all at once. Schedule them out so they can be posted on the day and time of your choosing. Set it and forget it, because Google Classroom has you covered! Once you schedule an assignment, it will automatically post it for you. 

Here is how you do it:

1. Create your assignment or question and then in the top right-hand corner where it says ‘Assign’, click the drop-down arrow and select, ‘Schedule’

2. Select the date and time.

3. Click ‘Schedule’ and the assignment will not post until the date you chose.

Keep in mind, there is no option to schedule a post for multiple classes. You must do it individually.
