EdX has just released the newest version of the edX platform on edx.org and edX Edge.
This release includes the following update.
Learners who have not specifically selected a time zone in their edX account settings now see times and dates on their dashboards, in the body of their courses, and on their Proress pages in the time zone that their browser specifies. Browser dates and times appear in military time and are followed by a time zone indicator: for example, 17:00 Sept 5, 2016 IOT. Other dates and times in their courses appear in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), and do not have a time zone indicator.
