If you have homework you have not turned in, you may turn it in until the end of the day Friday. What’s the end of the day? It’s when I go home for the day. It won’t be until after 5:00. Homework which has not been turned in yet, that is submitted after the end of the day Friday will not be accepted. There will be grade deductions for late work – the later the work, the more the deduction.
The syllabi for each class say that work more than one week late may not be submitted for credit, so this is already an extension. There will not be another.
If you have homework you’ve gotten back graded that you would like to resubmit for reconsideration of grade, or because you’ve corrected the mistake, or added the part that is missing you may do so until 2:00 PM on Tuesday May 8th. If you are resubmitting something, I need you to also submit the original assignment and the grading sheet you got back from me so that I can tell what you’ve done – a note explaining what you’ve done isn’t a bad idea either. For CAD assignments that were returned without comment sheets, if you can’t tell what the deductions were for, you’re likely going to have to come in to see me so we can identify the issues. The presentation of re-submission is paramount, if the work is crappy I’m not going to look at it – don’t bring it in to school in your pocket, and don’t email it.
“How much can I expect to get?” Usually about half of the deduction, so if you got a 4/10 on something, you could move up to a 7/10 typically. Sometimes its less, sometimes its more, depends on what you did and what you’ve done since.
“Is it worth it?” Anyone that wants to come in and look at their average can do so and we’ll see what difference it makes. This is however somewhat more of an art than a science as often final grades are unfigurable until exams are graded. But we can make an estimate.
“Can I have longer?” No. The resubmission deadline used to be Monday end of the day. So the extension is already figured in. I need to be figuring final grades after that for our academic progress meeting on Wednesday.
Questions? Come see me.
