    Course Name
    Tip Include the academic term in the course name.
    Course Start Date

    This date is both the first day students can access your course and the beginning of your students' temporary access period. It cannot be changed after students access the course.
    Course End Date

    To allow your students to view their grades and complete late work, consider setting this 1 week after the last day of class.

    Assignment dates and times are based on the time zone you select.

    This option is not available for all courses.

    Note Category scores can not be synced to Moodle.
    Note In Moodle versions older than 3.10, each activity link must be added individually. In this case, consider using the CNOWv2 gradebook to calculate an overall course score for all CNOWv2 activities and syncing that course score to Moodle instead.
