Hi everyone!

Is there a way to have a Module close at midterm (so on a specific date)? 

I want to award a Badgr Badge for what I'm calling "On-Time Performance."  The idea is to motivate people to avoid waiting until the last minute with the badge. Completion of the badge module results in award of the badge.

The criteria is that students submit the first three major assignments by midterm. I  have an open grace period that gives students until the end of the term to finish these major assignments. Closing the assignments won't work, because students can still submit after midterm.

If there's no way to close a Module on a certain date, the only work-around I can think of is to create a Declaration Quiz, where students affirm having turned in the work. That Declaration Quiz could close at midterm, and it could be the only task in the badge module (I hope you can follow that).

Is there any other way to accomplish what I want? Maybe I'm overlooking another solution. 

Thanks for reading my question and any suggestions you have.
