Students see the due dates when they go to My Grades to view their grades and when they look at entries in their course Calendars. With the <a title=\"Calendar\" href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/pTdGOMAZhQY\">Blackboard Calendar<\/a> feature, students can see the due dates for items in their courses. Assignments, assessments, discussion boards, blogs, wikis, journals, etc. with due dates automatically populate into the Calendar.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"420\" height=\"236\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/p6iEAgz0rUI?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>The Date Management tool allows you to easily change due dates, availability dates, and adaptive release dates at one time (all on one page). If you have to modify dates for two or more items you should consider using the Date Management tool to adjust the dates. The Date Management tool will save you some time as you will not have to edit each individual item to adjust the dates. <\/p>\n<p>The Date Management tool can be very useful when you use the <a title=\"Course Copy\" href=\"http:\/\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/bb-tip-42-copy-content-into-another-course\/\">Course Copy<\/a> feature. For example, if you created a <a title=\"Master Course\" href=\"http:\/\/cat.xula.edu\/food\/bb-tip-78-master-copies-of-courses\/\">master copy of a course<\/a> and copied the content from the master course into a blank course, you can use the Date Management tool to easily adjust dates after the course copy.<\/p>\n<p>Note: You cannot use the Date Management tool to adjust dates of Collaborate sessions, Bb partner integrations or publisher content items (e.g. Turnitin, McGraw Hill, etc.)<\/p>\n<h3>Follow these steps to do it.<\/h3>\n<p>To adjust content and\/or tool due dates, availability dates, and adaptive release dates you should:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Goto the [Control Panel] for the course and click on the [Course Tools] link to expand it. Click on [Date Management].<\/li>\n<li>Choose whether you want the system to automatically adjust dates to new dates or if you want to \"List All Dates for Review\". The \"List All Dates for Review\" option allows you to review all dates and manually adjust dates yourself. <\/li>\n<li>Click Refresh to ensure the page is up-to-date. <\/li>\n<li>Review all dates and adjust accordingly. You can filter your review by item type (e.g., assignments, blogs, journals, discussion boards) and date types (e.g., due dates, availability dates, adaptive release dates).<\/li>\n<li>You can adjust dates individually, two or more at one time, or automatically. Use the pencil icon to modify dates for individual items.<\/li>\n<li>Click [Run Date Management Again] to automatically adjust dates.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Note: If you do not see Date Management in your Course Tools, you should verify the Date Management tool is available in your course. To verify, go to the [Control Panel] click on [Customization] to expand it and click on [Tool Availability]. Make sure there is a check mark in the available box for the Date Management tool.
