Can I add additional exercises for a lesson in the CS Discoveries course?

Good afternoon @wstone,

The best way I have found to do that is to provide the instructions on my end (in canvas or Google Classroom or whatever CMS you are using) and have the students use the appropriate tool on [code.org](http://code.org). I don’t know of a way for you to actually create an assignment that students can complete on [code.org](http://code.org) with custom instructions.

The closest I can get is if it’s a web assignment, it is possible to use [html and css comments](https://studio.code.org/docs/concepts/html/formatting-html/#:~:text=are%20inside%20others.-,Commenting,-As%20your%20web) to give the instructions and share the URL with students. Then, the students can remix your project and read your comments in the code. So, that could work and I have done it before.

Mike

Thank you. I will create the assignments and have the students use the Web Lab under Projects to complete the assignments and submit a link on our LMS.

Perfect. I have found if I just share the link with them, all they need to do is click on the link and then make sure they are signed into [code.org](http://code.org) and hit remix. Then, it will save it automatically in their projects.
