[Assignments] Please allow teachers to see the sections they assigned work to.

Problem statement:

If teachers assign various due dates to sections, they no longer see what section correlates with the date. It only says "1 Section". Teachers now have to click the "Assign To" button to see the various time. This change was not an improvement and we ask that we go back to the titling before.

Proposed solution:

Simply go back to the way it was. It was easy for teachers to see who they assigned items to right from the assignment screen.

Problem statement:

The update described in the Deploy Notes (2024-19-09) changed how assignments with varying due dates display. Each assignment (not in Edit mode) used to specify which section was assigned to which date/time. Now the "For" column just says "1 Section" on every line, which means the instructor can't use that table to quickly see which section is assigned to which dates.

Proposed solution:

Please switch back to the previous view, where instead of the words "1 section" for every section that has been differentiated, we can see the actual section names.

Problem statement:

When an assignment is connected to 2 sections with differing due dates, the assignment summary page shows the multiple due dates and the # of sections are on that date. +-------------------+-------------------+-------------+--------+ | Due | For | Available from | Until | +-------------------+-------------------+-------------+--------+ | Oct 22 at 8:30am | 1 Section | - | - | | Oct 23 at 10:05am | 1 Section | - | - | +-------------------+-----------+----------------+--------+ Is there a way to make it clear which section has been assigned to that date/time so I don't have to go into the settings to see that info?

Proposed solution:

Display the section names in the list instead of "1 Section"
