Extensions

Options for Weekly Problem Sets

For weekly problem sets, extensions will only be granted in the most extenuating of circumstances—this is because you are not even required to finish them all!

Each problem set is worth 1% for a maximum attainable total of 5%, even though there are eight of them.

Options for Assignments, MST, and Exams

Short extension (1-3 working days)

For extensions between 1 to 3 working days, we are not participating in the FEIT extension process. Instead, you will be able to spend tokens accrued by participating in class toward extensions. You will not need to provide correct answers to class activities, merely engage. We will provide details on the token economy when semester starts (we are still working with other lecturers to get this set up in the best way!)

Special Consideration (4+ working days, or alternative)

If you need more than 3 working days, or alternative considerations for an assignment, you will need to submit a request on the Special Consideration Portal.

The Special Consideration application will require students to provide supporting documentation for their circumstance. The full application must be submitted within four working days of the assessment due date; it can be submitted in advance of the due date if you know you will be impacted.

Special Consideration is not automatically granted. They are assessed by Student and Scholarly Services (SASS) and passed to FEIT if you are found eligible for consideration.

Academic Adjust Plans (AAP)

If you require long term considerations due to an on-going circumstance, the University requests you register for an AAP . AAPs allow for a variety of on-going considerations to best facilitate your learning in our course.

If you have an AAP please submit it to us here.

You can also find this link on the course Canvas, right under the syllabus video. Please make sure you send us your AAP information as soon as possible so we can adapt appropriately.
