I am an instructional designer providing support to faculty, and we are running into an issue with the "Assign to" feature in Assignments and Modules.
When faculty assign an assignment to a specific section or group of students and then add this same assignment into a module that has also been assigned to this same section/group, the course does not recognize that this is the same section/group and displays a "Mutliple Due Dates" indicator on the assignment in the Module view even though only one due date is assigned (see first attached image). In the assignment itself, both sections (though they are the same) are listed below the prompt, but when the "Assign to" panel is opened to try and remove the "extra" listing, no extra dates display in the panel (see second attached image).
Aside from having faculty NOT assign assignments to sections before placing them in modules, is there any way to get rid of the extra section listing so there is no "Mutliple Due Dates" in the module view? Better yet, is there a way for the system to recognize that these are the same?
