Can we have assignment due dates next to the assignment like in the old LMS
In the old LMS the due dates were listed next to the assignments. This was helpful for both the student and the instructor. You did not have to look at the calendar every time you wanted to see due dates you can just look at the assignment list.
Thanks for your suggestion. This has been implemented.

I am SHOCKED that Cisco (NetAcad) could be so out of touch with what teachers need to be able to manage a classroom. All assignments, especially assessments and exams, need due dates to be able to direct student attention. Often students only do the work that is required by a specific date. Without a due date, it is very easy for students to miss critical assignments even with constant prodding by the instructor. For example, many students will look to the Calendar to see what is due. Without due dates, the assignment will not show up on the calendar at all. I realize that I can add additional notes to the calendar to indicate that an exam is due for each class, but this should not be necessary. In the future, when you make modifications to the LMS, please include an instructor as part of the design phase, or at least run the beta by instructors to ensure you don't miss such a glaring issue as due dates.

Would be nice for the students to see they have an upcoming exam with the date that is due like we did in the old system.
