[quote=Anonymous]With online courses, a hard deadline of 11:59 (not 12) is common. This was almost always the case for me. I think it has to do with them wanting to keep stuff organized in the same day. Also, instructors have their own deadlines when grades have to be submitted. I’ve had professors who would give an automatic zero for assignments that were even one minute late. I’m not sure if they are just pricks or if it is an attempt to teach us how the “real world” works, but it was stressful when you had a programming project and were stuck trying to fix a bug that you couldn’t figure out. It’s not like writing a report where you can’t really get stuck. Of course, in the “real world,” projects are past due more often than they are on time. [/quote]
