this video will guide you through the steps of
batch editing multiple mindtap activities
the batch edit feature allows you to make customizations
too many activities at once you
can change settings like graded or practice
points possible and

path quick expand
all since you can see the numerous activities within
your learning path

and notice that a check box now appears
to the left of each activity
select the folder or unit to
select all the activities with in that container
that you wish to customize
an orange check mark will now appear

activity to deselect if there is an
activity that you do not want to customize
with the batch edit action
note that the orange bar tells you how many
activities you have selected
click on the batch actions drop-down
menu and you'll notice for options

edit dates and
edit settings let's walk
through each of these options

to bring back those that you had turn
the show hidden toggle switch to on and
select the activities you headed
under batch actions
select show selected and the

use the calendar widget to assign a due date
and time and then click done
and Save
a success message will appear that
your dates have been updated quick
okay suppose
you set your assignment due dates and then need to ship
them a week later due to a snow day or another
class cancellation so I
think activity that you want to shift and
select edit dates under badge
actions select
ship selection and
enter the number of days that you wish to change the
due date either forward or
backward and then click save
a success message will appear that
your dates have been updated any assignments will
reflect the new shift into dates quick
okay now
Suppose there are multiple activities that count
towards a grade and you wish to change them to
practice activities so they don't count
towards a grade in the mindtap gradebook
Define them first click on the all
activities filter and select counts
towards grade as
you scroll through the learning path notice that
there will be folders or units that carry a message
all activities in this section
are hidden as a result of the current filter
this message confirms that the filter you indicated
has been applied
select those assignments that you wish to make practice
activities and under badge actions
select edit settings
second practice and then quick save
a success message will appear that your settings
have been updated click
okay to
batch edit the number of points that assignments
are worth click on the all activities
filter select count
towards grade
and then select the activities that you want
at it then
select batch actions edit
settings change
the point value
quick save
sometimes there may be complex in the batch
edit process this occurs when
you have a selected group that does not all conform
to the same settings change
if so then you will see a settings
conflict message in this case
there are six changes requested but
only two of them changed because four have
conflict you need to
go to these assignments and change them individually
or in this case
the requested change had been to
make all the activities integrated activities
however video
applications video Problem
walkthroughs and the interactive book
do not have the option of becoming graded so
no changes were made to these activities
Sephora conflict settings assignments will
remain marked with an orange check mark so
that if they could be changed individually
you'd be able to quickly see those activities
that had not been changed and act accordingly
one final note all these
batch edit changes will also be reflected
in the rolling week view
