    Description

      User story

      As a course creator/editing teacher
      I want to be able to configure the course to show activity dates
      so that I can decide if I want the activity dates to be shown

      Acceptance criteria
      1. Given I log in as an editing teacher/course creator, when I am at a course’s settings page, then I should see a setting that I can use to specify if I want the activity dates to be shown in the course or not.
      2. Given activity dates are set to be shown, when I go to a course's homepage, then I should see the dates for the activities in the course.
      3. Given activity dates are not set to be shown, when I go to a course's homepage, then I should not see the dates for the activities in the course.
      4. Given activity dates are set to be shown, when I view an activity with dates set, then those dates should be displayed on the activity's view page.
      5. Given activity dates are not set to be shown, when I view an activity with dates set, then those dates should not be displayed on the activity's view page.
