What does it do?
It automatically applies a penalty to late submissions in line with University policies. Staff can then decide whether to apply it or not when grading.
The image to the left is what students will see in their assignments submission screen.
This shows what student will see after a late submission, telling them the provisional penalty.
Late Submission Report
It is also possible for staff to view all the late submissions a student has made across all their classes, if the assessment is represented by a Myplace assignment.
The goal of this report is to allow staff from any class/department/School to see if a student seems to be showing a pattern of late submissions across their curriculum.
From the course administration tab select 'Reports' then 'Late Submissions'.
You will then be shown the late submissions for that class.
A student's name can be selected to view a summary of their late submissions for all their classes. Grace period applications can also be revoked here.
Removing a late submission penalty for a single student
To remove a late submission penalty for a single student, you must retrospectively grant them an extension for the piece of work. Instructions on how to do this can be found in the Extension Requests article.
Disabling the Late Submission Function for all students in the class
For new assignments:
When configuring a new assignment, there will be a section in the settings where a checkbox can be selected to disable the late submission penalty function.
For previously created assignments:
Turn editing on then select the 'edit' button beside the assignment and then 'edit settings'. Then go to the section for late submission policy where a checkbox can be selected to disable the late submission penalty function.
