Is it possible to change the default values in the assignment due time drop-down menu?

Hi Folks,

Our school has a schedule full of class periods that do not meet on the half hour. I was hoping to speed up my assignment creation process by changing the default values in the drop-down menu that lists the due time. It would be so much more convenient if I could get that menu to only list all the weird times my classes start and not type them in all the time.

Any help would be much appreciated!

You want to go to the "Settings" page for your course. There, you'll find a default due time option that you can set for any time you'd like. Once it's set, any new item you create will automatically be due at that time.

Thanks tremendously for your response. I should have been more detailed - sorry!

I am in a block schedule where my classes meet at different times on different days. For example, Class A can meet at 8:10, 9:15, 10:40, 11:45, 1:50. I would love to configure the drop-down menu for the times an assignment is due so it includes those times (and possibly *only* those times). I can't figure out how to do that, or if that is even possible.
