Manage assigned items is a feature that enables instructors to manage the due dates of milestones. Due dates/finish dates can be specified on an individual user using this feature. The due dates specified in this area will override any due dates specified by other means i.e. via integration or via objective / milestone offsets from start date. In the case where a group due date has been specified, an individual’s due date will supersede the group date.
Manage assigned items also allows the instructor to edit due dates on any assigned assessments. For assessments the instructor can alter the due date for an individual student, but also the max time allowed, max attempts and the password for the assessment.
