Applying Missing and Late Submission Policies in the Gradebook

The Missing Submission policy lets you automatically apply a grade for all missing online submissions in the gradebook. A submission is labeled missing when the due date has passed and it has not been submitted.

The Late Submission policy allows you to automatically deduct points on all late submissions. An online submission is labeled late when it has been submitted past the due date.

Watch the video below for more information about how to apply missing and late submission policies, as well as how policies will affect student scores.
