Schedule
Every Screening, Set and assessment due date, joined into one table by week.
Every week runs one Screening and one Set; three of those weeks also carry an assessment. This table lays out all twelve in order, with each week tagged to the act it belongs to — the same four acts described on the home page's roadmap — so it can be filtered down to one movement of the course, or to just the weeks with something due.
