Assignment Builder - Reconnect Previous Assignment

Reconnect Previous Assignment is not an Assignment Builder Assignment type, but rather a way to disconnect an existing Assignment Builder Assignment from one link in Brightspace and move it to another. For example, if an Assignment was connected to the UA Tools > VoiceThread menu option, Reconnect Previous Assignment can be used to transfer that Assignment to a different link in Course Content.

Additionally, if you created Assignments using the VoiceThread Assignment Builder 1.1 integration, you can use the Reconnect Previous Assignment to move your assignments to new 1.3 integration links.

To use Reconnect Previous Assignment to reconfigure a 1.1 Assignment to a 1.3 Assignment, or to remove an Assignment from one link inBrightspace and move it to another, follow the subsequent steps.
