Assign quizzes/assignments to individuals, sections or groups

Instructors can assign an assignment/discussion/quiz to individual students, sections or groups with different due and availability dates/times than what is assigned to everyone else in the class. The Assign To feature allows for multiple due and availability dates for purposes such as allowing a student to make up an activity; providing different dates based on when students might be presenting a class project; providing different length of time when an assessment will be open for students who have accommodations; providing a discussion to only a graduate section within a course that combines both graduate and undergraduate students; etc.
