(Butdon'tclick the Edit Target Set button, as this will open the editing for due dates, description, and individual assigning instead.)
  • You can also filter by local problems and problems from the course.Local problems are UBC-specific homework sets that include sets from the current course, sets shared through the UBC Library, and sets UBC instructors have contributed to the OPL. Problems from the course are sets from the current course only.
