# How do I assign a module to individual sections or students?

After [adding a module](https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-add-a-module/ta-p/1151), you can assign a module to individual students or sections.

**Notes:**

<div id="bkmrk-if-a-student-is-assi"><div>- If a student is assigned only a specific item within a module and not the entire module, they cannot view any items in the module. However, they can view the item on applicable pages. For example, if the module item is an assignment, page, or quiz, it can be viewed on the Assignments, Pages, or Quizzes page respectively.
- If a student is assigned an entire module, but not specific items within that module, students can only view the items they are assigned.
- The "Assign To" settings is not supported in the Teacher apps.
