While setting up Assessments, the option that is shown can be with marks or without marks. This is based on Grade setup (Admin > Configuration and Setup > Result Grade).

If marks grading setup then while assessments are setup for the grades then the Marks option will then be visible as shown below.

Task Release in Days (From Class Start Date) refers the date when the task will be released from Class Start Date. E.g. If you enter 21 it means task will be available to view 21 days after the Class Start Date. -1 refers to Class Finish Date.

Task Due in Days (From Task Release Date) refers to the date when task will be due after it is released. E.g. If you enter 21 as task release date and 14 as task due date it means the Task will be released for Students to view 21 days after the class start date and will be due 14 days after then.

These are pre setup values to enable the system to suggest dates to the user. These dates can be changed by the user if required during Task Entry.
