I would greatly appreciate being able to bulk edit assignments for multiple classes. We can bulk assign; but, must edit individually for every single assignment, for every single class. It is extremely cumbersome. Please help this request gain traction and priority with the powers that be by voting on this thread.
Hi everyone! I have some great news to share with you!
Based on feedback that you and other teachers shared with our team, Khan Academy has just launched a new feature that will allow you to edit multiple assignments at once! We know that things are constantly changing in the classroom, and we wanted to make it easier for you to adjust coursework when you need to!
In addition to that feature, we’ve added the ability to schedule assignments for a future date and time. We hope you will enjoy these new features, and we welcome any feedback you have about them.
Most importantly, we want to thank you for taking the time to share your feedback to help make Khan Academy a better learning resource for everyone. We take all feedback to heart and appreciate you sharing your ideas with us.
If it’s been a while, and you need a refresher on using Khan Academy, I highly recommend our course, Khan for Educators. This is a dedicated course for teachers getting started at Khan Academy. It’s composed of seven lessons that explore everything from getting started to classroom implementation and diving deep into Khan Academy’s teacher reports.
Thank you so much for helping us improve Khan Academy!

Wait, I'm confused. You can bulk edit the start/due dates. I used it today.
If you go the Teacher view, then assignments, then manage, then edit dates, you can change them there.
You can also bulk delete now by checking the box at the top. That used to be a nightmare because it was one by one.
Or are you referring to something else?
Fair enough. I think I know what you're talking about and I have submitted a feature request for it.
There are two ways to assign work. The first is through the teacher/coach method. In this interface activities are organized by class-unit-lesson-activity. With this interface you can select a 'lesson' which may consist of one or multiple videos/articles/exercises/quizzes or you can individually pick and choose.
The second method of assigning work is a blue button in the upper right corner of each activity on the site. I'm guessing this is what you're referring to and yes, I agree... it's annoying!
There are some activities on the site that are not in any of the classes and using the individual 'assign' button is the only solution. Where I have seen that to be true is in the Biology, Chemistry and Physics section. They have created mini curriculums such as High School Biology or AP Biology, but leave out many areas that I personally think are important. So the only way to assign those is to do it individually. Anyway, that issue has been submitted, I have no idea if/when they'll fix it
The bulk edit issue however, has been resolved. That one was very annoying!
