I had too many "I sent it, I'll go send it again"... only to receive a terrible paper 3 hours later, clearly written in the computer lab before sending out. I don't count it at all until I get a hard copy.<BR/><BR/>I really should institute a "no comments on late work" policy.Inside the Philosophy Factoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12255753259090709877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17577430.post-2870260124159202292007-09-13T21:40:00.000-05:002007-09-13T21:40:00.000-05:00The way I deal with the "how late it was, how late...The way I deal with the "how late it was, how late" question is that I make it clear that they should have a department secretary time/date/initial it before leaving it in my mailbox. If they do that, I then have confirmation that it was submitted at a particular date/time. I also have stopped fighting the fight about students trying to submit stuff via email in the following fashion: if you email it to me, I'll count it as submitted when the email is time/date-stamped. BUT. If you don't give me a hard copy within one week? You get a zero. And I won't comment. These two things have saved me SO many headaches, and they don't try to negotiate with me anymore.Dr. Crazyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12457967076373916629noreply@blogger.com
