[Modules] Modules need a "Lock After" Feature

I would like to suggest that Modules have a "Lock After" feature. Right now we can "Lock Until," but I like to show all modules and then I want them to disappear to the students after the due date has passed.

There is a luck until date for modules but it would be extremely helpful if there was also a lock date and time for the entire module.  This would not only save the time of putting a lock date on every assignment if it is all the same but it would (hopefully) turn off navigation controls for the module allowing a student who did not do the previous module to move on since they no longer have access to the previous assignments.

I'm bringing this up again. There needs to be a LOCK AFTER date for modules. Why isn't this an option yet? Curious minds want to know...especially an ID's! 😉 Thanks, Heather

I second this idea. I want to be able to lock the MODULE rather than have to go in and lock each individual assignment once a 9 week grading period ends.

I would like the ability to lock entire modules (rather than their contents individually) once a grading period has ended.

Problem statement:

Since I don't know when the final date of a Module will be until the end of the Module, I cannot put an end date on assignments until the end of the Module.

Proposed solution:

We need a Lock after option that allows us to lock the entire module (and automatically lock all assignments in it) at the end of the module, so students cannot submit late assignments from 93 days ago!!!

Problem statement:

I would like to be able to lock a module at a certain date/time without having to wait for that date/time and manually click "Lock".

Proposed solution:

Each module has the option to "Lock until". Is it possible to add an additional option for "Lock after"? I lock assignments after a specific date so that I have time to grade assignments before the end of the marking period and it would be great if I could just set the module (ahead of time) to lock at a certain date/time.
