Keeping assignment deadlines and availability windows consistent when copying courses from one section to another in D2L can sometimes be a challenge. This online training video demonstrates the manage dates tool in D2L, which makes editing dates in bulk much easier.
- [Instructor] The Manage Dates tool in D2L…allows you to adjust availability dates and deadlines…for multiple items simultaneously…and to see all of the date-related information…about your course in one convenient interface.…To begin, select the Manage Dates tool…from here in the site resources area.…From here, every piece of content within your course…is available within a single table.…You can filter the table…by specific tool types, if you'd like,…like announcements or assignments, for example,…and then apply the filter for easier manageability.…
But I typically like seeing everything here all at once.…Within the table, you'll see a very convenient breakdown…of every single item's associated due dates,…start dates, and end dates,…as well as whether it's available…to be viewed in the calendar or viewable by students at all.…You can adjust any of these items from within the table…directly if you would like.…Or if you'd like to apply edits…to multiple items simultaneously,…just select those specific items…and then choose from the top, bulk edit dates,…
