New option to delete assignments for individual student

How can we help?

I've made a class and assigned hundreds of lessons for my 40+ friends for LearnStorm, including 20+ Grammar lessons to everyone. One of them asked me to remove their Grammar assignments, but it looks like the only way to do this is to manually edit every Grammar assignment and remove the user from the assignment.

I think having an option to bulk delete assignments from a individual user would be a huge improvement. Here's an existing page for viewing student stats, this would be the perfect place to add the deleting options:

(I got to this page by viewing the Assignments tab, and clicking on a user)

As part of our Support Community improvement project, we’re preserving inactive posts that have historical or community value and closing them to new comments. This is one of them!

If this post covers a topic that you’re interested in discussing with the community or requests a feature you’d like to see on Khan Academy, you can try to find an active post about it and add your thoughts (or feel free or create a new post if it doesn’t yet exist in the forum).

Hi Jett-

I will bring your idea to the development team at Khan. It would be a nice feature to use for students who transfer to another class as well. Thanks for the input!

Can we please revisit this suggestion? I, along with many other teachers, would love the ability to delete one or more assignments for a student directly from that student's assignment page. Especially now during remote learning, this would be a huge time saver and easier for organization.

Has anyone done anything with this yet? I am spending huge amounts of time trying to pick through individual assignments and remove 1 or 2 students who need to change placement. This would be SO much easier to do in the student view than in the manage assignments page.

Hi. I can relate to Paul and have come to realize that this was a major oversight. In this age of individualized learning, especially in a combo class where students are working at different levels, it's sad that we cannot individually adjust each students' assignments. Considering how developed/advanced this wonderful platform has become, this one adjustment would be a great tool to enhance individualized learning support. Thank you for considering this as a priority.
