Your students might request extensions in person or by Private Message, Ask Your Teacher message, or email. You can grant these extension requests and set the duration, penalty, and any extra submissions to allow for the extension.
Before you decide whether to grant an extension, you might review your student's work on the assignment or in your class generally.
Important Because % total
and points penalties are deducted as soon as a manual or
automatic extension is granted, first ask your student to accept or decline a manual
extension that imposes these kinds of penalties.
Students are not automatically notified when you grant an extension this way.
Always let extension recipients know:
- The new due date and time
- The new number of submissions allowed, if changed
- The penalties applied, if any
Important Because
granting an extension changes the student's due date, automatic bonus or penalty points based on the
due date will be applied based on the student's extended due date. If needed, adjust the student's
assignment score after the extension period ends.
