Assignments submitted on the Due Date—will be marked in as timely a fashion as possible (typically 2 weeks or less, depending on the size / type of assignment). These assignments will be given a rubric, and formative feedback.

Assignments submitted within Due Date / Deadline—will be marked, time permitting, as other assignments allow. Students will receive a rubric but may not

receive formative feedback.

Assignments submitted after Deadline—will be awarded a zero. By this point most students have received their work back and thus the opportunity for Academic Dishonesty is greater. Assignment / curricular objectives may be demonstrated using an alternative assignment.
