Available Dates


Under each standard or assigned optional learning object, you’ll see two date fields:

  • Assignment Due By
  • Restricted Availability of LO

 

*NOTE* Optional learning objects will not display these date fields until they have been added to an assignment. Once assigned, you can set due dates and restrict availability for optional learning objects too. Please see Assignments | How to create an assignment 

 


Due Date


Under Manage Course, you are able to add a due date to a task. Any learning objects that have a due date set will show up in the student view under their Assignments tab.


*Note* The due date will be issued to all students. You can only choose specific students when assigning optional learning task through the assignment process.



To set a due date, select the checkbox next to the Assignment Due By option at the bottom left of the learning object tile. 


Once selected, you can click on the Calendar icon to choose the due date for the task. When you click the icon, a calendar will pop up. Select and click on the due date you want to use, and it will autofill into the date field.



Click the down caret to use the drop down menu to set the hour and minute values for when the task is due. To toggle between AM and PM, click on the AM or PM fields.



Save Changes


Once you have entered the due date, you need to save the changes. To save changes, go to the top right of the Track Progress and Edit Availability window and click the Save button on the top right.



You’ll be prompted with a message once the save is successfully completed. Click the OK button.
