[Files] Create Due Dates for Reading files and attachments like Assignments

[PurpleRain]

Problem statement:

I really hope Canvas creates due dates for readings that are attachment files, pages, documents, etc. in modules. This would hopefully help students know they are accountable for readings with due dates. Similar to assignments and the assignment section with due dates. On my syllabus, hardly any of the students look at the digital calendar that is also on a paper copy. Again, I hope a Canvas update will include due dates for reading files, so more students will read for that day, as reminders, and create more accountability.

Proposed solution:

Create due dates for readings, files, pages, in Canvas Modules. A Canvas update will include due dates for reading files, so more students will read for that day, as reminders, and create more accountability.

This idea has been added to the Expand support for student-driven learning in Canvas theme for further consideration.
