Setting Content Availability
Content release scenarios can be created by combining availability dates and settings on:
- Files/Folders in the File Area of the course
- Assignments and Quizzes
- Discussions
- Pages
- Modules
A few possible scenarios are outlined in the images below.
Scenario 1: When a Module is locked, the content within it is locked until the Module becomes available.
Scenario 2: Module is unlocked, but content within it is locked because content must be viewed/completed first.
Scenario 3: Module is unlocked, but content within it that has set availability dates is locked until the specified date.
Scenario 4: A page is available, but linked content within the page that has set availability dates is locked.
