Limitations for creating a lesson plan template
When converting the assignment to an assignment idea template, only multimedia creation or quick recording assignments can be added to the assignment ideas library.
Plan and role requirements for creating a lesson plan template
Instructors and administrators with an Educational license can access the Assignment Ideas Library to use the lesson plan templates stored there in their classes. An account administrator can modify role permissions to control whether instructors can share the assignment idea templates with other instructors in the license.
