Instructors: Extending deadlines

Learnvia gives you flexibility when managing assignment deadlines. Whether you need to adjust a due date for the entire class or accommodate an individual student, here’s how to handle deadline extensions.

Extending a Deadline for the Entire Class

You can update due dates for any assignment at the class level, including deadlines that have already passed. 

Steps
