Blackboard's due dates offer instructors and students a streamlined and intuitive way to manage assignment deadlines and course schedules. Students benefit from this feature by having visibility into upcoming deadlines, allowing them to plan and prioritize their workload effectively. Due dates appear on the Calendar and in the Activity Stream.
The final grade column year must be a future year to avoid any automatic zeros in this category's grade book. If you notice the year is current let us know.

Under Details & Information > Due Date, establish a new due date by clicking on the Calendar icon, and time by clicking on the Clock icon. When you are done, click Save:
