Assignment per channel

Is it possible to make an assignment per channel. Instead of make an assignment on the General channel.
We want to use a team as class. The channels are the subjects and in each "subject channel" we want to make an seperate subject assignment

    This is possible, when creating the assignment (in the general tab) simply click the settings link at the bottom (edit) and choose the channel you wish to allocate to. note, must be done prior to assigning the assignment.

    I agree, we are using a channel for Homework and a channel for classwork to help pupils easily find the work they must complete. Having the ability for the owner and the members to click on an assignment and grade tab which is then filtered to those assignments posted to that channel would be a great addition.

    Please can we have this - so important for differentiation and setting different groups different assignments privately

    The worst part of this feature being lacking is that you have to individually select the students you want to receive the assignment. Really should have been added from the beginning.

    Again, we have a team for the whole subject group in case of needing to teach to all in the event of a lockdown, however we need to be able to set work to each class within the team. Please please this feature wold make our lives so much easier!

    I am an Elementary Librarian. I have been assigned one Team for each of my 6 grade levels. I need to be able to assign work to my classes (not the whole grade together) BY class.... I have created the private channels for each but don't have the ability to assign work with the assignments tab. I am forced to just post in the chat and students (and parents) are getting very confused...

    Please do make it possible as it is very much required for every teacher and for the smooth conduct of every class during this difficult time of COVID-19.

    Original suggestion was posted in 2018! How long does it take to make the changes?

    Please make this happen, I have different sections of ELA under my teams and have to differentiate the assignments that I give.

    Yes Please!!! this would be so great for SO MANY reasons. Differentiating would be easier, helping younger students with organization would be better. Overall better for all!

    Hear! Hear!
    Being able to create private channels to allocate differentiated assignments would be a dream come true for time poor teachers like myself.
