Setting the Activity Date for an Assignment

For assignments that have a due date (i.e., Moodle assignments, Forums, etc), the activity date, as well as the “opened” date (date activity is available to students), can be displayed on the course page once the “Show activity date” is enabled.

The opened and due dates can be set in the settings for the assignment under “Availability.” To show the opened date, set a date in the “Allow submissions from” field and check “Enable.” To show the due date, set a date in the “Due date” field and check “Enable.”
