Motivation and emotion/Assessment/Extensions
Extensions
- Extensions for assessment exercises will only be granted in exceptional circumstances. Progress on the assessment items is expected throughout the teaching period. Early communication of problems is strongly advised.
- Extensions will not be granted for:
- Workload (e.g., study load and/or paid or voluntary work)—such problems should be anticipated
- Technical problems (e.g., lost/corrupted/damaged storage media, software/internet access problems, and viruses)—keep multiple and regular backups
- Undocumented issues
- Submit extension requests for the major project via the online "Extension application form" in the UCLearn site. Submit deferred exam requests via MyUC. Include documentary evidence that covers the length of requested extension.
- Submit a separate request for each assessment item for which extension is sought
- The unit convener will consider the request and advise the outcome. If approved, the new due date will appear in UCLearn
