Course administrators with appropriate privileges can define when and for how long particular content material(s) will be available to students in Student View.

To change the start and/or end date of when course materials are available to students, use the Edit link for that course material on the Admin Course Materials page. The settings can be modified in Step 3 of the Edit Course Material wizard.

To immediately release course materials, use the Release Materials link on the Admin Course Materials page to launch the Release Course Materials Wizard. To release course materials that are organized outside of folders, click on the Release Materials link located at the top of the page. To release course materials that are organized within a folder, click on the Release Materials link located within that folder. Make sure that the folder is expanded in order to see the link.

Note: when requesting that course materials from a previously taught course be copied to a new course, you have the option to specify whether or not you want the course materials to be made available to students. Please note that while content may be unavailable to students in the Course Materials tool, it will be available to students in other tools where it is referenced.
