Instructional Design Center Availability Dates

Megan Jones Instructional Designer

What are Availability Dates? Availability dates are a way of guiding students through materials on Blackboard by directly changing when content items appear. There are several ways to control how your content appears in Blackboard using adaptive release, but that is beyond the scope of this tutorial.

What are Availability Dates? Time Release: Controlling when content items appear by using availability dates; Membership Release: Certain groups of students can access controlled materials; Grade/Completion Release: Students can access items only if they achieve a certain score or complete a prior assignment or quiz.

How Do Availability Dates Work? Availability dates work by using specific time and date settings to control how students view materials in a course. An example of this would be allowing a quiz to release on a specific date and time.

When to Use Availability Dates Availability dates can be used in several teaching scenarios. Professors usually have their own style or method of running courses, but I will share my own experiences. When I was a faculty member, I used availability dates in a couple of scenarios…

When to Use Availability Dates Pacing Students through Modules: Sometimes you want the student to follow you through the course and not work ahead. Allowing Students to Work Ahead: If students complete certain assignments and quizzes, they can move on to the next module or assignment.

Implementing Availability Dates in Blackboard The premise is simple – we want to control students’ access to materials. We will cover how to change availability dates for items in this tutorial. Let’s take a look at a basic quiz in Blackboard:

Implementing Availability Dates in Blackboard In order to control when the quiz is released, be sure to look at the Edit the Test Options selection (2) after clicking the down arrow by the title of the quiz (1).

WARNING! Make sure that Edit Mode is on when you are making changes to your course (F3), otherwise you may not be able to access the Edit the Test Options page.

Implementing Availability Dates in Blackboard Once you are in the Edit the Test Options page, you should see the title and description of the quiz.

Implementing Availability Dates in Blackboard Scroll down to the Test Availability section (F5), and you should see various options that control access to your quiz.

Implementing Availability Dates in Blackboard After viewing these options, you should see a “Display After” and “Display Until” area. This is where you will set your test availability dates.

Did You Know? You can set availability dates on any item in Blackboard; it does not have to be a quiz or assignment.
