Extend an assignment deadline or allow resubmission

Who can use this: Teachers and staff with access to the course.

Before you start

Open the assigned student’s controls. Individual settings can differ from the assignment’s default dates and attempt allowance.

Extend an assignment deadline or allow resubmission

  1. Open Dates, exemption & resubmission for the student.
  2. Set the intended opening, due or closing override, or return a field to the assignment default. Add extra attempts when another submission should be allowed.
  3. Record the reason and save student changes. Recheck the effective dates and remaining attempts shown for that student.

What happens next

The selected student receives the permitted exception while other students keep their settings.

Troubleshooting

An extra attempt alone may not be usable after the student’s closing time. Check both dates and allowance. An exemption is deliberate and should not be used simply to hide missing work.
