Hi Shelly ，

Thanks for your support of our products.

First, I would like to explain that the Assignment which was passed Due Time will still list in the student list. If students didn’t turn in this assignment on time, they will see Not turned in .( The due date for this assignment has passed and you can no longer turn it in. ) These assignments will still list in students’ view unless teachers delete them at their end.  

For your reference: View and navigate your assignments (student)

We utterly understand how this feature will benefit your work and won’t let you lose the contents of previous assignments. We suggest you manually backup the contents to continue using.

This can be faster than editing Assignments individually. Seeing all Assignments on a single calendar can be helpful for context and planning.

• Click on the Calendar button in the Canvas gray global navigation menu
• Click your course at the far right

• To drag & drop: Select the Assignment title on the calendar. Drag and drop it to the calendar square that indicates the desired due date.

• You have now changed the due date for this Assignment—not just on your calendar, but for the actual Assignment. You can check it by going to the Assignments tab and confirming that the due date has changed. Continue doing this with each Assignment that needs updating.

Undated Assignments

If you have any Undated assignments (Assignments Discussions, or Quizzes with no due dates established) you can quickly add dates by dragging and dropping them onto the calendar.

• Unfurl the arrow next to Undated

• You have now changed the due date for this Assignment—not just on your calendar, but for the actual Assignment. You can check it by going to the Assignments tab and confirming that the due date has changed. Continue doing this with each Assignment that needs a due date.
