In Course Navigation, click the Assignments link.

In the Assignments Index page, you can view all the assignments in your course.

By default, assignments are grouped by overdue assignments, upcoming assignments, undated assignments, and past assignments.

• Overdue Assignments [1]: assignments and discussions that are past the due date, are still available, have not been submitted, and have not been graded.
• Upcoming Assignments [2]: assignments, discussions, and quizzes that have an upcoming due date.
• Undated Assignments [3]: assignments, discussions, and quizzes that do not have a due date.
• Past Assignments [4]: assignments and discussions that are past the due date and either are not available, have been submitted, or have received a grade; quizzes that are past the due date.

Each assignment also includes an icon with the assignment type: assignment [5], discussion [6], or quiz [7].

The Assignment Summary header displays the assignment title, due date, and points possible [1]. Not all assignments may have a due date.
