Student Exceptions

Student Exceptions is a feature allowing you to make student-specific changes to a few policy settings for an assignment. For example, if a student had a medical emergency and had to be late for an assignment, you could use this feature to extend the assignment due date just for that student.
Student Exceptions can be accessed from two locations: Assignment Preview and Change Dates and Settings.
The policy settings below can be changed for any student:

  • Assignment Available from Date/Time
  • Assignment Due by Date/Time
  • Time Limit
  • Attempts Allowed
  • Delay Feedback

Add Student Exceptions

  1. Click the assignment name from the assignment list.
  2. From the assignment preview, click student exceptions <a onClick="window.open('/olcweb/cgi/pluginpop.cgi?it=jpg::::/sites/dl/free/0000065899/772725/image182.jpg','popWin', 'width=NaN,height=NaN,resizable,scrollbars');" href="#"><img valign="absmiddle" height="16" width="16" border="0" src="/olcweb/styles/shared/linkicons/image.gif"> (1.0K)</a>
  3. The student exceptions page shows original policy settings and the form to add exceptions.
  4. Select one or more students from the list.
    <a onClick="window.open('/olcweb/cgi/pluginpop.cgi?it=jpg::::/sites/dl/free/0000065899/772725/image183.jpg','popWin', 'width=NaN,height=NaN,resizable,scrollbars');" href="#"><img valign="absmiddle" height="16" width="16" border="0" src="/olcweb/styles/shared/linkicons/image.gif"> (16.0K)</a>
  5. Set the policies to change for the selected student(s).
  6. Click apply to add the exceptions.
  7. If you have a delayed feedback setting and extended the due date in this exception beyond the original delayed feedback date, you will be prompted to confirm or change the original delayed feedback date. This is to prevent this student from getting answers from other students when feedback is revealed to them.
  8. You will be returned to the section home page and a message is added to remind you that you have student(s) with exceptions for the assignment.
