The problem it solves

Most instructors never fill in LEARN's Assignments and Quizzes tools. Real deadlines end up in course announcements written as ordinary sentences, or in the official course outline, which LEARN never shows you. So there is no single page that answers "what is due".

Where it looks

Assignment and quiz due dates from LEARN's own tools, where instructors use them
Midterm and exam dates from your official Waterloo course outlines
Deadlines written into announcements, read out of the sentence
Rescheduled deadlines, when an instructor announces a change mid-term
Anything you add by hand

No password

It never asks for your WatIAM credentials. It reads the LEARN session your browser already has, so there is nothing to sign into and nothing stored. Everything stays on your device — no servers, no accounts, no analytics. See the privacy policy.

Check what it shows you

Because many deadlines are interpreted from prose, some can be wrong. Every date is labelled with where it came from and quotes the sentence it was read from, and dates an instructor moved are marked with the date they replaced. Treat it as a convenience, not as the authoritative source — your course outline and your instructor are.

Found something it missed?

Deadline phrasings vary a lot between instructors. If an announcement had a date and it didn't appear, send the wording along — each missed phrasing is one worth handling.
