How do I set the schedule and due dates?

This article covers how to add end dates (hard due dates) to your lessons and how to set a schedule (soft due dates).

There are two ways that you are able to set due dates in your course. You can set the due dates using Scheduling and using Assessment Settings. 

How to set due dates using Scheduling 

1. Log into your instructor account and navigate to the Manage section 
   
2. Scroll down to the Curriculum section and select Scheduling
   
3. Click on RESET TIMELINES
   
   1. NOTE: Select Saturday and Sunday in the pop-up if you would like to set due dates for the weekend.
      
4. You should now see a template timeline for the units. You can click on a unit title to view the lessons within the unit. Clicking on the lessons lets you set a due date. You can either drag the lesson's icon to the due date you would like, or you can set it using the calendar at the bottom.
