Hello @ElizabethGarza1
I understand that you have some questions about assigning due/availability dates for your quizzes and assignments in Canvas.
ICYMI: A recent change in the UI for Canvas was pushed out on the 20th and there were a bunch of features that were updated. Throughout the last couple years, our Community members have provided quite a lot of feedback on how to improve certain functions such as this. Most notably, instructors have been requesting the ability to assign Modules and Pages to students for a few years. The most recent release has now made this possible, but it required a workflow change to the functionality of the Assign To box and how it is streamlined within Pages, Modules, Quizzes, Assignments and Discussions.
- To edit your due/availability dates, you now need to click on the button called Manage Assign To. This will open an interactive Tray to the right side of the edit screen and allow you add your due and availability dates. One cool part of this is that student SIS IDs are displayed alongside student names when available.
- Some other improvements that were made possible were that you can assignment Modules, and Pages to individual students and sections.
I know change is scary sometimes and it throws you off your groove. If you would like to add some constructive feedback on these new features, we would love to have you do that HERE.
Hopefully this helps!
-Colton
