NOTE: Item reassignment notifications are not governed by any settings and are sent by default whenever a change occurs to online content. The settings mentioned above do not control whether a notification is sent when content is modified or removed. They only determine whether a notification is sent when an item is added to or updated in a user’s learning plan.
