how to handle late penalty

Hi Roy,
The system doesn't currently have anything in place to automatically deduct a late penalty on a quiz. It will tell you how late the quiz is though so you can use your best judgement in deducting points.

I would really like to see an automatic late penalty option added, but when I try to follow the link to vote for it, I get a log in prompt and cannot log in. I don't get an option to register and when I click the only option available (reset password), I get an error message. How do I access the ideas page to vote for features???

This is a significant limitation of D2L that I just discovered. I know other systems allow automatic grade reductions based on how late an assignment or quiz is.

I agree. I am very tired of having to calculate all my own late penalties when Canvas can do it automatically.

there have been requests on this forum for automatic penalty for years, it is not something a learning platform in 21st century would have difficulty implementing, but they still don't have that feature.

I can't believe this still does not exist. It availble on other LMS. Getting really tired of D2L being so far behind.

Hello @Casey.A.497, Thank you so much for raising this concern. As suggested by the previous commenter, you can upvote these ideas on PIE: Automatically assign a grade to late work, Automatic Late penalty
While it’s not a direct replacement, the Gradebook tool now offers an automatic zero feature for activities that were not submitted at all. You can learn more about that here:
We definitely understand the importance of this functionality, and we’ll continue to pass along feedback like this to the team.

Please add the ability to the ability to apply late penalties to quizzes. This is such an important feature.

I very much agree with several commenters on this thread and dearly miss on Brightspace an easy option to grade late submissions of quizzes and all multiple-choice tests with a penalty as Blackboard offers. It is an important learning and teaching tool. I hope Brightspace will update to include such a feature, just like Brightspace offers for late submissions of assignments.
