In WebAssign, the assignment schedule dates are calculated based on rules that you specify. This makes it easier to schedule the same assignment to multiple course sections or to other courses, or to copy an entire course schedule to a new course.
- Due
The date and time before which students must submit the assignment without requiring an extension.
- Available
The date and time when students can begin working on the assignment. Students do not see assignments in their assignment list until they become available to work on.
- View Until
The date and time after which students can no longer view the assignment. This allows you to define a period of time after the due date when students can review their assignment but not make any changes.
Depending on the kind of assignment you are scheduling, you might want to add security and time restrictions, require students to pass one or more prerequisite assignments before starting work, or schedule the assignment to be completed as group work.
