Updated onArticleIn Canvas you can control when content is available to students by setting Availability / Lock Dates.
Availability Dates can be set for activities like Assignments and Quizzes, which determine when students can view the item's description as well as submit / engage with the activity.
Lock Dates are set at the Module level and control when students are allowed to access and view content (i.e. files, discussions, assignments, quizzes, etc.), as well as submit / engage with the items within the Module.
It is possible to use both Availability and Lock Dates to limit and control student access and engagement with course content through these date restrictions.
