What does it do?
It applies the standard penalties set out in the Policy and Procedure for Late Submission of Coursework to work submitted after the deadline on Myplace.
For now it only applies to assignment activities, which are represented by this icon 
If you think you are unlikely to meet a coursework deadline due to medical issues or personal circumstances, please apply for an extension as early as possible. It is now also possible to apply for an extension to an assignment on Myplace using a new tool in Myplace. Include Page
