You got it! You can submit some late work and get an A in this class, provided that you only request one extension and you submit your work by the new agreed deadline.


As a reminder, here is the contract for an A in this class (from the syllabus):

  • You have submitted all required assignments. If you requested an extension for up to one submission, you requested it at least 48 hours in advance, and you submitted by the agreed new deadline.

  • You have respected the instructions given to the best of your ability, contacting me in case of doubt. If the instructions were still misunderstood, you resubmitted when offered the chance.

  • You have watched a minimum of 8 lecture recordings out of 10 during the relevant weeks and filled out at least 8 exit tickets in full.

  • You attended most class meetings (up to two out of fourteen were missed and I was notified – reason for missing is personal, no need to tell me why).

  • You have a track record of spoken or chat participation in the class meetings. You made at least one input in the discussion for each meeting, be it in the chat or spoken.
  • An optional take-home exam (untimed), is proposed in the main menu, under Assessment, to raise your final letter grade by half a point (e.g. a B+ into an A-, A- into A, etc.). This can compensate in case you are missing some of the requirements above for an A. You may submit that exam at any point during the course, but no later than May 10th, 11:59 pm, to my email.
