1.) Availability:
- "Display After" controls at which date/time the assignment will become visible to students and they are allowed to start making submissions.
- "Display Until" controls at which date/time the assignment will no longer be visible to students and they may no longer make submissions.

- "Due Date", past this date/time the system will start counting submissions as late. Usually, the Due Date and Display Until date are the same. (NOTE: If the "Display Until" box is not checked students will be able to submit past the due date, however, the items will be tagged as late in the grading area).
