Changing Course Participation Dates in Your Canvas Course
Updated onArticleParticipation dates are determined by your course Term. They limit how long students can actively participate in course assignments / activities. When the course is concluded (i.e. past the term or manually selected end date), the course is placed in a read-only state. However, this date can be overridden by instructors to create shorter or longer course dates as necessary.
