UWP Lecturers Safe Assign

[Kimberly Turner]

Karen,

I usually "threaten" students who don't upload that I may have to delay their grades.  I have had them still not post to safeassign though.

 

If I don't suspect plagiarism on the papers, I let it slide after I spot check a couple of sentences in a google search.  If I do suspect plagiarism, I try emailing the student to let him/her know that I'm delaying the grade, and then I search for plagiarism the old-fashioned way.  Students generally submit their papers at this point.  When I do find plagiarism at the end of the quarter - or when I suspect I've found it - I use the grade delay and start the process with the Academic Misconduct office.

Hello:
 
I have a few students who forgot and/or failed to upload their final paper to Safe Assign.  I have a printed copy of their papers to grade.  I have been unable to reach them through email.  
 
How do you handle this situation?  Do you not accept the paper at all, or reduce their grade? Or . . . .?
 
Thanks so much, and Happy Grading !
