Run an assignment as a scrimmage

Turn on Run as a scrimmage when you set up an assignment, give it a start date, and it becomes a short contest for your class. Students see it and its live scoreboard once it starts.

• Scoring: a challenge is worth its difficulty: easy 1, medium 2, hard 3. A learning path, chapter, or module scores once every part of it is done.
• Everyone starts even: only work between the start and the due date counts. A student who solved a challenge before scores it by submitting its flag again.
• Locked once it starts: the challenges and start date can’t change. You can still rename it, reorder it, or move the due date later.

A classroom can have one scrimmage scheduled or running at a time. For team play, create a classroom for the scrimmage and batch-register one shared account per team. More about scrimmages.
