Discussions–Late Submissions

The course website wasn’t clear about whether we would accept late submissions for Discussions.  Since the point of the discussions is to prepare you for the topic of the week our general intent was not to accept late discussions.  In light of the lack of explicit statement of that policy up till now here is what I’ve advised the graders:

• Starting next week (Week-6) we will not accept late Discussion submissions
• For late submissions up to now we will allow them if they were submitted by the start of class on Wednesday of the week the discussion was due.
• A penalty of approximately 2 points will be applied to those that meet this criteria.
