Adding tasks in the Opiq environment

When a teacher opens the Opiq environment from their eKool journal, the first step is to update the journal data. The teacher can then add homework assignments or tests in the Opiq environment. The article Linking journal with Opiq discusses linking the journal with the Opiq environment.
