Assignments (projects, lab homeworks, etc.) are due as stated. Assignments must be properly submitted (pushed to GitHub) for credit. Late work will receive a 0. 1 second late = 1 day late.
Use your slip days. Slip days are specifically intended for legitimate reasons for needing an extension. This includes accommodations (e.g. medical issues, family emergencies, religious observance, athletic participation, etc.)
All assignment deadlines are known well in advance. For most students with accommodations, you should plan ahead and complete your assignment before the deadline.
If this policy is not meeting your accommodation needs, please speak with me. I will work with you to develop reasonable accommodations that align with your individual situation.
A slip day permits you to submit an assignment 24 hours after the deadline and still receive credit without a late penalty.
You are given 3 slip days for the entire semester (not each assignment) to use for late work with the option to earn 3 more slip days (one for each individual project).
A slip day is 24 hours, any day, including weekends and holidays.
You may use a maximum of 2 slip days per deadline/submission if permitted by the assignment.
Any assignment submitted after the late deadline (deadline + 2 slip days) will receive a 0.
You are responsible for tracking your slip day usage.
Check CMS for your current slip day usage. If you submit after the deadline and do not have sufficient slip days available, you will receive a 0 for the assignment.
Slip days are specifically intended for legitimate reasons for needing a deadline extension.
As per University policy, use of slip days may be warranted by:
This includes religious holidays, family emergencies, mental health, personal issues, etc.
You may earn 3 additional slip days (one for each individual project) by participating and making meaningful contributions to the discussion forum throughout the duration of each project.
The deadline to earn an additional slip day is the deadline for the final submission for each individual project.
You may use your earned slip days on any assignment that you wish. This includes the current project.
