Default Settings for Assignment

(1)

It would be helpful if we could set default settings for assignments. Many of my assignment settings have the same settings and it would save a lot of clicks and time if I could set the defaults and use the quick add for assignments.

Yes!! This is definitely needed! 

Right now, "Display Grade As" defaults to "Points" but I would like to set the default to be "Display Grade as Letter Grade" since I am using Grading Schemes in my course.

This is so essential. Especially because most of what canvas is used for is making assignments.... and it honestly sucks for that. why it needs to take me 5 minutes per assignment is beyond me. even the creating a copy of assignment workaround doesn't really work.

I agree! the amount of time it takes to put in the settings for each assignment is very off putting. it's the last thing you remember to do with a full class in the room. I have the same settings almost every time so a template for a Quick add would be great

There should be more than one chance to the test..
